Love a man

Who loves a diamond

And holds it softly

In the palm of his hand

Keeps it warm

And holds it directly

Under the pages

Of his heart's command



Love was overrated

Love was hard to find

Love was overrated

I would find



Be it true

Or be it underhanded

I won't harbor

And she won't crawl

Be it real

Or be it underminded

She won't harbor

And I won't stall



Love was overrated

Love was hard to find

Love was overrated

In my time



Love a man

Who loves a diamond

And holds it softly

In the palm of his hand

Keeps it warm

And holds it directly

Under the pages

Of his heart's command
