Diamond In Da Ruff

Diamond, oh diamond

Diamond in da ruff

Someone that you don't meet twice

We left the bricks for the burbs, turned Mo into Remy (Remy)

Matchin' fur coats and Fendi from the bus to a Bentley coupe

With a closet full of shoes, yeah (Yeah, yeah)

Then our smiles turned to frowns, ups turned to downs

I don't know where I'm goin' now

I think about her every once in a while

We started out like Bobby and Whitney, Justin and Britney

Then it all got ugly, if it weren't for the money

You said I start actin' funny, but what's wrong with you, honey?

Then the good turned to bad, forgot what we had

Is it too late to get it back?

I think about her every once in a while

Like, when I spot a rainbow (Or see a fallin' star)

(A set of twins or a classic car)

(A four-leaf clover or a two dollar bill)

(It's so rare that it's so unreal)

And I don't know how to get over her smile

I wonder what she's doin (What's goin' on)

(I think about her every once in a while), once in a while

I shoulda came with a ring, set a date for next May

Guess I thought that you'd wait, now I hate that I took so long

Played around with her, now she's gone, oh no

Now my smiles turned to frowns, ups turned to downs

And I don't know where I'm goin' (Now, now, now)

I think about her every once in a while

We argued like Archie and Edith

Like Ike turned on Tina

But I really didn't mean it

I was raised not to hit a woman

Especially not the one I'm lovin'

But when the good turned to bad, happy to sad

I wish we could take it back (How I miss you baby)

I think about her every once in a while

Like when I spot a rainbow or see a fallin' star

(A set of twins or a classic car)

(A four leaf clover or a two-dollar bill)

(It's so rare that it's so unreal)

And I don't know how to get over her smile

Wonder what she's doin' now

(I think about her every once in a while)

You're like a star, shinin' in the broad daylight

Somethin' you don't see all the time

And now, I finally recognize

That I shoulda made you all mine

Never shoulda let you pass me by

You put that sparkle in my life

Someone that you don't meet twice

I'm gonna live to regret it baby

Baby, baby

I miss you, need you, yeah
