diamond from lost&found by Michael Reinhart

diamond january 2006 montréal

for a little while a long long time ago
was a certain someone I wanted to know
now I know I’ll never get a second chance
she fell right out of love into other plans

she said obviously you’ve never held a diamond in your hand
‘cause if you ever had you’d obviously understand [once]

for a little while a long long time away
I didn’t know half the things that I know today
she was older than me by a couple of years
sometimes the eyes can’t see ‘cept through their own tears

she said obviously you’ve never held a diamond in your hand
‘cause if you ever had you’d obviously understand [repeat]

lost without a lantern in a diamond mine
is this what it means when they say that love is blind [once]

for a little while a long long way from here
the road up ahead wasn’t very clear
sat with my brother at the bar & mourned my empty bed
he bought another round & smiled at me this is all he said

he said obviously you’ve never held a diamond in your hand
‘cause if you ever had you’d obviously understand [repeat]

lost without a lantern in a diamond mine
is this what it means when they say that love is blind [repeat]
