Who wants to bu-u-uy this diamond ri-i-i-ing?
|
She took it off her finger, now it doesn't mean a thi-i-i-ng
|
This diamond ring doesn't shine for me anymore
|
And this diamond ring doesn't mean what it meant before
|
So if you've got someone whose love is tru-u-ue
|
Let it shine for yo-ou-ou
|
|
This stone is genuine like love should be-e-e-e
|
And if your baby's truer than my baby was to me-e-e-e
|
This diamond ring can mean something beautiful
|
And this diamond ring can mean dreams that are coming true
|
And then your heart won't have to break like mine did
|
If there's love behind it
|
|
This diamond ring can mean something beautiful
|
And this diamond ring can mean dreams that are coming true
|
And then your heart won't have to break like mine did
|
If there's love behind it
|
|
This diamond ring doesn't shine for me anymore
|
And this diamond ring doesn't mean what it meant before
|
FADE
|
So if you've got someone whose love is tru-u-ue
|
Let it shine for yo-ou-ou
