A diamond I used to have
Anytime we cross path
It reminds me of those good old days
Anytime we make eye contact
I remember when I first saw your smile
I remember your sweet lovely kiss
How you being in my arms
made me feel like never giving up
When we used to play-fight on the bed
When you used to say that you would
always be by myside no matter what
So what happened?
I spent the most joyful moments of my life with you
Only to be an Alien to you the next morning
Now even strangers are closer than us
I feel sad everytime I remember that
The girl who was my only reason to live
Is now a diamond that I used to have
