Who
wants to bu-u-uy this diamond ri-i-i-ing?
She took it off her finger, now it
doesn't mean a thi-i-i-ng
This diamond ring doesn't shine for me
anymore
And this diamond ring doesn't mean what it meant before
So if
you've got someone whose love is tru-u-ue
Let it shine for
yo-ou-ou

This stone is genuine like love should be-e-e-e
And if your
baby's truer than my baby was to me-e-e-e
This diamond ring can mean
something beautiful
And this diamond ring can mean dreams that are coming
true
And then your heart won't have to break like mine did
If there's
love behind it



This
diamond ring can mean something beautiful
And this diamond ring can mean
dreams that are coming true
And then your heart won't have to break like
mine did
If there's love behind it

This diamond ring doesn't shine
for me anymore
And this diamond ring doesn't mean what it meant
before
FADE
So if you've got someone whose love is tru-u-ue
Let it
shine for yo-ou-ou
