Diamond In The Rough ft. Glen Burtnik Girl on my street with a wrinkled up collar, asking me for seven dollars. I can’t believe a word she says is true. She looks sixteen but, she talks like twenty. I’d give her some change but, my pockets are empty. The need in her voice reminds me of you. Just like a diamond in the rough, I just can’t afford your love. You’re the deal that cost too much. And I ain’t got enough, for a girl as tough as you. In my rearview I see a black Mercedes. Looks like it could be my dream car, baby. But the driver is nowhere to be found. What appears like a dream on the outside, doesn’t always look so sweet on the inside. Like you, this car is broken down. I’ll never learn and you’ll never change. Both of us know that’s true. Still I don’t know why I can’t walk away from you.
