Lyrics

Budapest

[Verse 1]

My house in Budapest, my

My hidden treasure chest

Golden grand piano

My beautiful Castillo

[Refrain]

You, ooh, you, ooh

I'd leave it all

[Verse 2]

My acres of a land

That I've achieved

It may be hard for you to

Stop and believe

[Refrain]

But for you, ooh, you, ooh

I'd leave it all

But, for you, ooh, you, ooh

I'd leave it all

[Chorus]

Give me one good reason

Why I should never make a change

Baby, if you hold me

Then all of this will go away

[Verse 3]

My many artifacts

The list goes on

If you just say the words, I'll

I'll up and run

[Refrain]

Oh, to you, ooh, you, ooh

I'd leave it all

Oh, for you, ooh, you, ooh

I'd leave it all

[Chorus]

Give me one good reason

Why I should never make a change

Baby, if you hold me

Then all of this will go away, oh-oh-oh

Give me one good reason

Why I should never make a change

Baby, if you hold me

Then all of this will go away

[Post-Chorus]

Oh-oh, oh-oh-ooh

Oh-oh, oh-oh-ooh

[Verse 4]

My friends and family

They, don't understand

They fear they'll lose so much

If you take my hand

But for you–

My friends and family

They, don't understand

They fear they'll lose so much

If you take my hand

[Refrain]

But for you, ooh, you, ooh

I'd lose it all

But for you, ooh, you, oh

[Chorus]

And now, give me one good reason

Why I should never make a change

Baby, if you hold me

Then all of this will go away, oh-oh-oh

Give me one good reason

Why I should never make a change

Baby, if you hold me

Then all of this will go away

[Verse 5]

My house in Budapest, my

My hidden treasure chest

Golden grand piano

My beautiful Castillo

[Refrain]

You, ooh, you, ooh

I'd leave it all

Oh, for you, ooh, you, ooh

I'd leave it all
