Diamond In The Rough

Well I've been up yeah

And I've been down

Been kicked around yeah

This god-forsaken town

So many faults, so little time

I've gotta find my piece of mind. Peace of mind

I was looking for somethin'

Anything at all

Something to believe in. Spray-painted on the walls

I've made mistakes, yeah. I've paid for them too

What's a poor boy supposed to do?

Then she said yea, yea

? You? re like a diamond in the rough

You're dirty and you're damaged

All you need's a little love

But inside you sparkle

That? ll light the stars above

And you'll be there in the morning

When the going gets tough

There was a time when, I could not say

I got a reason to live another day

A discarded treasure, they all passed on by

And I can understand the reasons why

Then she said yea, yea

? You? re like a diamond in the rough

You're dirty and you're damaged

All you need? s a little love

But inside there? s a sparkle

That? ll light the stars above

And you'll be there in the morning

When the going gets tough?

Yea, yea, diamond in the rough

Yea, yea, gonna light the stars above

Yea, yea, all you need? s a little love

You'll be there in the morning

When the going? Gets tough

Diamond in the rough now, yea, yea

Who? ll light the stars above, yea, yea

All you need? s a little love now, yea, yea
