Diamond On

I woke up walked out the door
You were gone and that's for sure
That sporty red rental ain't never coming back and I didn't get to say goodbye
I want to call you, but what's the use
I can't think up an excuse
Your heart's back in New York and so are you as soon as you catch that flight

So where do we go from here my dear
When you got your whole life waiting there
Cause I can't wreck a home that ain't even been built

And it feels like the weight of the world is crashing down on my heart
And I'm doing all I can just to keep it from falling apart
How do you tell somebody you just met that she's the one
Especially when she's got a diamond on

He sure is one lucky man
And I'm sure he knows it and I'm sure he can't
Believe that he gets to spend the rest of his life with a girl like you
And I'm sitting here doing the best
That I can to forget you, but I know that I can't
But I hope for a second that you felt for me what you've always felt for him

So where do I go from here my dear
When you got your whole life waiting there
Cause I can't wreck a home that ain't even been built

(chorus)

Her hand that's on my shoulder dancing in that bar last night
Now she's gone where I can't hold her and I didn't get to say goodbye
Twenty minutes earlier and damn I would have caught her

(chorus)

Her hand that's on my shoulder dancing in that bar last night
Now she's gone where I can't hold her she left with the sunrise
Twenty minutes earlier and damn I would have caught her
But I didn't even get to say goodbye
