Diamonds On Your Cheeks

Diamonds in your ears,
fire glowing in your eyes
Fog across the windshield,
darkness all behind
Found tenderness within your arms
Now in leaving,
hollowness in mine
You might be the best thing
that’s happened to me

Diamonds on your cheeks,
rivers are flowing down mine
Distractions and obstacles and distances
aren’t kind
Tell me you wanna leave, won’t talk
I kinda wish that you’d been blind
Cuz you’re the best thing
that’s happened
to me

Sapphires are her eyes, and there’s little
dimples in her cheeks
I watch her teeter, then fall
She laughs giggling, trying to speak
Wonder if you’ll start to change after
these next few coming weeks
You say “She’s the best thing
that’s ever happened
to me!”

Diamonds on your finger
and laughter in our lives
Sunsets become sunrises-
we put them ALL behind
Your friend gossips in jealousy
while family thinks we’ve lost our minds
But you’re the best thing
that’s happened
to me
