MY DIAMOND

MY DIAMOND
Verse 1:
Your brother sent me a picture of us all on the beach
We were standing in the sand, Zane boy swinging off of your neck
You two were peas in a pod, couldn't separate you if I tried
I'd watch you walk into a room and see the way folks smiled
Something about the way you are just makes the world feel right
You have this way of lifting hearts - did you ever know?
The gift you carry everywhere, the light inside your soul
Chorus:
You're a diamond in my life
Worth more than you'll ever know
Nothing's gonna change that truth
No matter where you go
You're a diamond, precious and rare
And in my heart, you're shining there
Verse 2:
I know we don't see eye to eye, and miles don't help us much
But can't help but think you're just like grandpa's son
Stubborn as they come, yeah, that's the way we're made
But that don't change the way I see you, Lacie Bug - your worth will never fade
Chorus:
You're a diamond in my life
Worth more than you'll ever know
Nothing's gonna change that truth
No matter where you go
You're a diamond, precious and rare
And in my heart, you're shining there
Bridge:
I know you came to me once, wanting me to hear
And I said 'let's leave the past behind,' thought that would make it clear
But maybe what you needed was for me to just sit still
And listen to your heart break without trying to fix or heal
Final Chorus:
You're a diamond in my life
Worth more than you'll ever know
Nothing's gonna change that truth
No matter where you go
You're a diamond, precious and rare
And in my heart, you're shining there
