Broken Diamond
Broken Diamond
The perfect diamond I could give you
Was the one you could not wear
It brought the biggest smile
When you were the only one to share
All the brilliance and the dazzle
It shone brighter than the stars
And we all know that diamonds
Are the hardest rock of all
Yet the diamond that I gave you
Was gentle, strong, yet soft
It was broken and shattered
Because I gave you-my heart
Broken diamond in the dust
Left to tumble, left to rust
All the pieces have turned gray
This broken diamond tumbles astray
