FFH Album: Have I Ever Told You Track: Millionaire
Millionaire Lyrics
"A week or two before we were to begin recording Michael came down to my house for a visit and as usual we ended up in my office playing guitar. That's when he played 'Millionaire' for me. As soon as I heard it I knew we needed to put it on the album. Mike was surprised; he hadn't taken the song seriously up until that point. 'Millionaire' is a statement of contentment. It talks about how we may never be rich and famous, or have the nicest material things, but we will be the light of the world. And that's far more important and than anything this world has to offer."
I may never be the reason That people come from miles around Just to hear that beautiful sound I may never see the season Where people love to hear me speak And everybody wants to be me
Dare I go where I can't see And if I do will You go with me Maybe it's time that I just learn to believe
That I may never be a millionaire Funny I don't think I care May never see the mountain view I guess I don't need to I may never drive a fancy car Or be a movie star But I'll be, I'll be, the light of the world
I may never hold the answers To questions of philosophy Or even understand what that means And I may never cure the cancer That seems to run our busy lives I guess that I'll just join in the fight
Dare I go where I can't see And if I do will You go with me Maybe it's time that I just learn to believe
I may never be a hero Or set my feet on Wall Street Or give the evening news But I believe in what God wants me to be
