I could tell by your eyes that you're down on your luck trying to keep up with the world around you but it is getting too hard to fake a smile it is getting too hard to even try *chorus And so much beauty that never gets noticed and so much sparkle that never gets seen In this world of greyness it is a shame nobody sees it there is a diamond behind the dirt there is a diamond behind the dirt And I I I wish you happiness And I I I wish you peace Yeah I wish they could see all your beauty I wish they could see there is a diamond behind the dirt there is a diamond behind the dirt you've stood on the edge and waited on a sign that everything would be alright if you believed you had to strong I know how it feels and I know it hurts *chorus there is a diamond behind the dirt

Tell me this is it Tell me this is for keeps Tell me that finally I've got it right and I'm not, I'm not *chorus Temporarily blinded, desperately seeking love Temporarily blinded, desperately seeking love oh Temporarily blinded, desperately seeking love from you, from you Hold me, hold me together show me this is forever love me, your love is all ask for, ask for *chorus Temporarily blinded, desperately seeking love Temporarily blinded, desperately seeking love oh Temporarily blinded, desperately seeking love from you, from you

Your demands of me are too high The stress I can longer hide I'm sorry but I won't be back this time Cos I gave you all I've got to give there is nothing left to give you anymore oh, I gave you all I've got to give but it is still not enough for you The pain you inflict is too cruel You're tearing me to shreds with every word you say And I gave you all I've got to give there is nothing left to give you anymore oh, I gave you all I've got to give but it is still not enough for you The anger in your eyes shines through I know often speak about leaving you but this time I'm really going to go Cos I gave you all I've got to give there is nothing left to give you anymore Yeah I gave you all I've got to give but it's never enough for you Yeah I gave you I've got to give there is nothing left to give you anymore Oh, I have you all I've got to give but it is still not enough for you oh it is never enough, Oh never enough it is never enough for you Oh it is never enough, oh never enough for you its never enough for you I gave you I got, I gave you I got, I gave you all I got to give but it is never enough, never enough for you

The day we stopped talking our love seemed to end I would have forgiven if you had been honest then instead of playing a game of deciet if you've told me back then I might have forgiven The day we stopped talking was the day our love died The day we stopped when you told me those lies The day we stopped talking was the day our love died when I knew couldn't trust you It's not what you did, it's the lies that you told I wasn't strong enough to rise above it broke my heart to find out that way had my suspicion confirmed one day The day we stopped talking was the day our love died The day we stopped when you told me those lies The day we stopped talking was the day our love died when I knew couldn't trust you There can be no love where there is no trust No love no trust and I don't love you, I dont love no more, no no no, no no no The day we stopped talking was the day our love died The day we stopped when you told me those lies The day we stopped talking was the day our love died when I knew couldn't trust you

The Problem 04:02
I can't seem to get anything right Don't know answers to the questions the whole world is asking me over and over again Answers I can't deliver No one understands me No one cares how I'm feeling deep down inside I tried to let you know I tried to let you see that I think the problem might be me I tried to let you know I tried to let you see that I think the problem might be me The whole world can't be wrong, the whole world can't be wrong I think the problem must be me So send me some love to make me feel alive Nobody else matters, just you and me In a world full of emptiness let there be some truth In this world full of emptiness please let there be some truth I tried to let you know I tried to let you see that I think the problem might be me I tried to let you know I tried to let you see that I think the problem might be me The whole world can't be wrong, the whole world can't be wrong I think the problem must be me, the problem must be me the problem must be me, oh it must be me
