Title: Teardrops Were Diamonds Verse 1: A barstool and a memory, that’s all I’ve got tonight Your picture in the neon flickers in the light The jukebox plays our song, but it don’t sound the same Since you walked out on me and took my world away Pre-Chorus: I see you in the faces on every street I pass In every little moment I thought would never last Chorus: If teardrops were diamonds, I’d be a wealthy man But all I’ve got is heartache I can’t understand I see you in the daylight, I see you in my dreams No matter where I turn, you’re everywhere to me I’d trade every sunrise just to hold you again But the night keeps remindin’ me how this story ends Verse 2: There’s a shadow in the corner where you used to be But I see you in the headlights of every passing street In the window of a café, in a stranger’s smile In every mile I drive, you’re with me all the while Pre-Chorus: I should’ve said the things I never said back then Now I’m payin’ for it time and time again Chorus: If teardrops were diamonds, I’d be a wealthy man But all I’ve got is heartache I can’t understand I see you in the daylight, I see you in my dreams No matter where I turn, you’re everywhere to me I’d trade every sunrise just to hold you again But the night keeps remindin’ me how this story ends Outro: Yeah, in every lonely place, it always feels the same No matter where I go, I still see your face And the night keeps remindin’ me how this story ends
