Funky Diamonds Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
a real friend
we haven't fogotten yet
we miss you
Pain and anger fills my mind
the tears I've cried can fill an ocean
oh so deep it hurts inside
question that I fear so long
will it be will it be like before
No pleasure without pain
your heart will feel the ease again
togheter we will make it through the day
Say you'll be there when the night turns to dark
give me your hand when I'm in need of a friend
'cause every time I close my eyes I wish that you were here
so far away but in my mind you are near
Taking day by day no sorrow
live today not for tomorrow
a crying shame tell me who's to blame
I took for granted everday
your voice and laughters in my ear
why oh why must it be this way
No pleasure without pain
your heart will feel the ease again
together we will make it through the day
Say you'll be there when the night turns to dawn
give me your hand when I'm in need of a friend
'cause every time I close my eyes I wish that you were here
so far away but in my mind you are near
Say you'll be there when the night turns to dawn
give me your hand when I'm in need of a friend
'cause every time I close my eyes I wish that you were here
so far away but in my mind you are near
I don't know what to do what to say
I miss you very much
why why do you have to leave us this way
'cause you're a friend
and you haven't been forgotten yet
we all miss you very much
why does it have to be this way
Say you'll be there when the night turns to dawn
give me your hand when I'm in need of a friend
'cause every time I close my eyes I wish that you were here
so far away but in my mind you are near
Say you'll be there when the night turns to dawn
give me your hand when I'm in need of a friend
'cause every time I close my eyes I wish that you were here
so far away but in my mind you are near
