Diamond In the Rough Lyrics


Better babyLooking at you I can tell you've had hard times in your life
Now it's time for me to make everything right
I wanna shower you with lovely things, help you smile again
I wanna get to know you, make it right so you can breathe againYou're a diamond in the rough, girl
And I'm here to make it better
You're a diamond in the rough, girl
And we gonna shine in love togetherI see the scars from the broken heart
Life's got you down
And the bags under your eyes have the smiles inside
That's tearing you apartGirl, you looking at change
I'm a man who prays and I'm strong in faith
God must've had a plan, placed you in my hand
Let me lead the wayYou're a diamond in the rough, girl
And I'm here to make it better
You're a diamond in the rough, girl
And we gonna shine in love togetherYou're a diamond in the rough, girl
And I'm here to make it better
You're a diamond in the rough, girl

And we gonna shine in love togetherYou're a diamond in the rough, girl
And I'm here to make it better
You're a diamond in the rough, girl
And we gonna shine in love togetherYou're a diamond in the rough, girl
And I'm here to make it better
You're a diamond in the rough, girl
And we gonna shine in love togetherYou're a princess cut uranium
You're flawless, girl
Your don't have to bow
Brilliant baby, shine better than all I knowYou're a diamond in the rough, girl
And I'm here to make it better
You're a diamond in the rough, girl
And we gonna shine in love togetherYou're a diamond in the rough, girl
We gonna shine in love forever
