Her voice imbedded in my head An embezzle in my heart It’s spelling her name, and its telling me Because I can get her in my hands To put her on my arm These expensive things are just wearing me Cause nothing, even matters if my sun shines Trapped in, behind the clouds most of the time I finally see why the guard her soul Cause she’s priceless, But there’s something she ought to know, so
Bridge 1
She got me pickin’ up rocks Tossing them at her window Baby come outside I gave it two or three knocks Standing at the front door because I gone run out of rocks (Oh I gotta get up) And let her know she’s perfect in ways (she couldn’t think of) And I think about her everyday This might not be love, but this crush Got me wanting to tell you today
Chorus
You're a diamond in the rough Dust you off baby, I want to make you shine for me, And if I can take you out, I'll show you off baby, I want the whole world to see. (Because you look so blind) Cause they same I’m a star (But you can carry your own light) Shed some light on my heart You’re a diamond in the rough I want to make you shine for me, Shine for me, shine for me
Verse 2
Now this, might be the only time to say it We’re finally face to face and baby You’re probably scared to be put out on display To be part of a showcase What if I could paint a picture You could be my Mona Lisa Baby you’re a work of art And just when I thought I had her Baby girl picked her bag up Told me watch out, then she ran back into the house now
Bridge 2
She got me pickin’ up rocks Tossing them at her window Baby come outside I gave it two or three knocks Standing at the front door because I gone run out of rocks (Oh I gotta get up) And let her know she’s perfect in ways (she couldn’t think of) And I think about her everyday This might not be love, but this crush Got me wanting to tell you today
Chorus (x2)
You're a diamond in the rough Dust you off baby, I want to make you shine for me, And if I can take you out, I'll show you off baby, I want the whole world to see. (Because you look so blind) Cause they same I’m a star (But you can carry your own light) Shed some light on my heart You’re a diamond in the rough I want to make you shine for me, Shine for me, shine for me
