Diamond In The Rough

"I just wanted to write an upbeat song that felt good to sing and play with the band. I think it's one of the great secrets of being a grown up…we all just want to be somebody somebody could love. That being said the road to hell is paved with good intentions… "

See the way he smiles
I bet he's never been alone
I bet he's got the sweetest little thing waiting for him at home
I don't care what people say
nobody escapes
if you have a heart, now and then you're gonna have a little heartache
a little heartbreak

Cause everybody wants to be something to write home about
a little more than what you see
a diamond in the rough
Everybody wants to be somebody somebody could love

That woman in the check out line
ruining everybody's day
you know nobody's born that angry
how you think she got to be that way?
When a stranger meets your eye, be the one that smiles first
nobody ever died from a little kindness no matter what you've heard
no matter what you've heard

chorus

when it comes to promises
I may write some I can't cash
but it's only cause I want you to be happy Baby
tell me what's so wrong with that?
