It wasn't for money, position or wealth
For she could have all of those things
She traded the offers of diamonds and gold
She'd rather have plain apron strings
She could have had mansions and dresses of silk
And married someone well-to-do
But a man who had nothing but love in his heart
Made her an offer she couldn't refuse
He offered love for a lifetime
The true love was all that he owned
A house that was rented
And children to make it a home
She valued the promise that went with his ring
That's all she wanted from life
She'd rather have nothing and know she belonged
To a man who just wanted a wife
She turned down the riches they offered to her
For something too precious to lose
When a man who had nothing but love in his heart
Made her an offer she couldn't refuse
When a man who had nothing but love in his heart
Made her an offer she couldn't refuse
