If You Have a Minute

Take a minute to consider me
Give me a moment and you will see
That everything in life is not what it seems -
I will be willing to mend your broken dreams 

If you have a minute, 
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
Your heart is oh so brave
Savor the moment for a moment in time 
Times spent with you is oh so sublime 

Take a minute to understand me
Don't underestimate me... Just give me a second to make out what I see before me with much clarity 
I wish you'd be here right beside me at all times -
I will be as memorable and childlike like Nursery rhymes

If you have a minute, 
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
Your heart is oh so brave
Savor the moment for a moment in time 
Times spent with you is oh so sublime

Take a minute to believe in me
Give me a minute or two to clearly see
Where you're coming from, my darling angel of light
Where have you been all the days of my life, my delight? 

If you have a minute, 
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
Your heart is oh so brave
Savor the moment for a moment in time 
Times spent with you is oh so sublime

If you have a minute, 
Can you come on over here and take a seat next to me for a bit? 
If you have a minute, 
Can you share with me your clever wit? (Whatever you see fit) 
Consider me... 
Understand me... 
BELIEVE IN ME! 
Understand me... 
Reflect on me... 
If I can have a minute of your time

If you have a minute, 
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
Your heart is oh so brave
Savor the moment for a moment in time 
Times spent with you is oh so sublime

Pardon me... 
I wish you can see... 
My true colors behind these eyes of oceanic wilderness
If you have a minute, 
Come here and sit
Consider my heart's burning desire beyond these days of commotion and distress 
If you have a minute, 
Be genuine and stop wearing your facial facade 
If you have a minute, 
Be true to yourself and show off your alter ego with a smile so broad 

If you have a minute, 
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
Your heart is oh so brave
Savor the moment for a moment in time 
Times spent with you is oh so sublime

You're the best thing I never had
I'm a lonely, depressed and sad lad
Take a moment to consider me... 
Take a minute to set me free... 
If you have a minute, 
I'll repair your delicate heart of regret, so be brave
If you have a minute, 
What about you shine like a diamond in the cave
In the cave
In the cave
