Girls´ Generation Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Along like a snowflake, and brightened up my day
[Taeyeon] There is just one thing I need on this snowy winter day
Call me a fool to love you, but I want nothing but you
[Sooyoung] All I have to hear your voice, the one that brings me joy
[Seohyun] And your warmth slowly wraps around my heart... Boy, can't you
See?
[All] The lights are shining on me, and it's like a diamond
I'm spinning around, rocking around like a diamond
[Yuri] That's because I'm filled with emotions
[Jessica] Everybody's waiting for the holidays
Candies and toys of silver trays
And there is one thing special... Boy, you are my present
[Sunny] There is just one thing I need on this snowy winter day
Call me a fool to love you, but I want nothing but you
[Yoona] All I have to hear your voice, the one that brings me joy
[Yuri] And your warmth slowly wraps around my heart... Boy, can't you see?
[All] The lights are shining on me, and it's like a diamond
I'm spinning around, rocking around like a diamond
[Hyoyeon] That's because I'm filled with emotions
[Sunny] That's because I'm filled with emotions
[Seohyun] You're shining, you're gleaming
Oh, you melt me like white snow, oh
[Tiffany] You're shining, you're gleaming
[Taeyeon] And your warmth slowly wraps around my heart
Boy, can't you see! ~
[All] The lights are shining on me, and it's like a diamond
I'm spinning around, rocking around like diamonds
[Jessica] To your heart~
[All] The lights are shining on me, and it's like a diamond
I'm spinning around, rocking around like a diamond
[Jessica] That's because I'm filled with emotions
[Tiffany] That's because I'm filled with emotions

The song "T.O.P" and "I'm a Diamond" are the most debated SNSD songs because there is a lot of speculation from fans about who sings parts of the song. Sometimes there are exchanged and misplaced. The only way to see SNSD appear again and bring it with an individual camera clear. 😭🤣
