DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH

So you and I we better get our story straight
Or the time we’ve had is all we have in store
And if all you’re handing me is one more thread to hang myself upon
I’ll be damned if I’ll be your diamond in the rough

And I waited for you then
Like I’m waiting for you now
But I won’t be there like some millionaire
With a price set on a vow

There’s a part of you that’s walking out on me tonight
And I close my ears behind you as you leave
But at least we have a promise that’s worth fighting for
I’ll be damned if I’ll be your diamond in the rough

And if all I’ve had to say
Doesn’t matter anyway
At least I can deal with the fact I tried now to heal
In my own way

And it’s you who said to branch out now
Our love’s out on a limb alright
I’ll be damned if I’ll be your diamond in the rough

And I waited for you then
Like I’m waiting for you now
But I won’t be there like some millionaire
With a price set on a vow

So you and me we seem to get our signals crossed
Like a circus mirror nothing looks quite right
And if all you’re handing me is one more thread to hang myself upon
I’ll be damned if I’ll be your diamond in the rough
I’ll be damned if I’ll be your diamond in the rough
I’ll be damned if I’ll be your diamond in the rough
I’ll be damned if I’ll be your diamond in the rough
