Diamond (In The Rough)

I sleep all day,

Worry at night.

The things you say,

Don’t feel all right.

Sometimes we’re perfect,

Sometimes we’re a hurricane.

These up’s and down’s are important.

It means we can’t go to waste.

 

Would you throw away a diamond?

Right now we’re in the rough, I’ll admit.

Would you throw away a diamond?

Why can’t we work through this?

 

I talk too much,

I know, I know.

But you talk too loud,

Steal my thoughts away.

We fight too much,

About the stupidest things,

But the make up makes

It worth it in the end.

 

Would you throw away a diamond?

Right now we’re in the rough, I’ll admit.

Would you throw away a diamond?

Why can’t we work through this?

 

Can’t you see the naked value?

Can’t you see the treasure we hold?

Would you throw away,

A little piece of shiny gold?

 

Would you throw away a diamond?

Right now we’re in the rough, I’ll admit.

Would you throw away a diamond?

Why can’t we work through this?
