Lonely Millionaire Lyrics – Kacey Musgraves
Lonely Millionaire Lyrics
[Verse: Kacey Musgraves]
You can step off a plane into a black car
You can pay 'em to wait
You can wear the gold watch on your wrist
But it won't give you back the moments you miss
[Pre-Chorus: Kacey Musgraves]
When I get paid, I wanna spend it on you
And baby, that's what it's for
I burned it all to keep you warm
[Chorus: Kacey Musgraves]
Who wants to be a lonely millionaire
Coming home, ain't no one there
That you can talk to in your king-sized bed
Be careful what you wish for, I see it all the time
The money and the diamonds and the things that shine
Can't buy you true happiness
[Post-Chorus: Kacey Musgraves]
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
[Bridge: Kacey Musgraves]
All I want, all I want
All I want is you
All I want, all I want
All I want is you
Oh, mmm
[Chorus: Kacey Musgraves]
Be careful what you wish for, I see it all the time
The money and the diamonds and the things that shine
Can't buy you true happinеss
[Outro: Kacey Musgraves]
Oh, mmm
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
Mmm
Lonely Millionaire Lyrics Meaning
The lyrics of "Lonely Millionaire" by Kacey Musgraves reflects on the emptiness that can accompany wealth and material success. Despite having money and possessions, the protagonist feels isolated and longs for genuine connection and happiness. The lyrics caution against chasing after material wealth without considering its true value in terms of relationships and emotional fulfillment.
[Verse]
The verse describes the superficial trappings of wealth, such as luxury travel and expensive possessions like a gold watch. However, these material items cannot replace the meaningful moments and experiences that money cannot buy. The imagery of stepping off a plane into a black car suggests a glamorous lifestyle, but ultimately, it's devoid of substance and genuine connection.
[Pre-Chorus]
In the pre-chorus, the singer expresses a desire to use her wealth to enrich her relationship. She wants to spend her money on her loved one, indicating a willingness to prioritize their happiness over material indulgence. The line "I burned it all to keep you warm" metaphorically suggests sacrificing material wealth for the sake of emotional warmth and closeness.
[Chorus]
The chorus warns against the pitfalls of chasing after wealth at the expense of relationships. Being a "lonely millionaire" implies having material abundance but lacking meaningful human connection. The protagonist reflects on the loneliness of returning home to an empty house, highlighting the hollowness of material possessions in the absence of companionship and love.
[Post-Chorus]
The post-chorus features a repetitive melody, emphasizing the central theme of the song. The "la la la" refrain serves as a poignant reminder of the emptiness that can accompany material wealth when it's not accompanied by genuine happiness and fulfillment.
[Bridge]
The bridge reaffirms the singer's desire for love and connection above all else. Despite the allure of wealth and luxury, all she truly wants is the person she loves. This sentiment underscores the song's central message about the importance of prioritizing relationships over materialism.
[Outro]
In the outro, the singer continues to reflect on the limitations of wealth in providing true happiness. The repetition of "la la la" serves as a somber conclusion to the song, driving home the idea that material possessions cannot fill the void of loneliness and longing for genuine human connection.
