Diamond Ring

Oh, I never asked for your soul

Only a way to get home

If you never wanted me then

You could’ve said so

In your apartment at nine

Sharing a bottle of wine

Fingertips all intertwined

I wonder why?

I never asked for a diamond ring

I didn’t want much of anything

I would’ve loved to love you

For the night

Head spinning ‘round and I had it bad

Anything you wanted you could have

But it never happened

And oh I wonder why

I was all off in a daze

Wishing that I would’ve stayed

Living it back play by play

The way it went on

I never asked for your heart

Only some deep conversation

I should have known from the start

You’d lead me on

CHORUS

Why I wasted so much hope

And losing faith and

Something that was all for show

I’m finding hard to let it go

Oh why?

CHORUS
