Diamond in da ruff
Someone that you don't meet twice
We left the Brickz for the 'Burbs' turned Mo into Remy
Matching fur coats and Fendi from the bus to a Bentley
Coupe with a closet full of shoes, yeah
Than our smiles turned to frowns ups turned to downs
I don't know where I'm going now
I think about her every once in awhile
We started out like Bobby and Whitney, Justin and Britney
Then it all got ugly, if it weren't for the money
You said I start actin' funny but what's wrong witcha honey
Then the good turned to bad forgot what we had
Is it to late to get it back? I think about her more than once in awhile
Like when I spot a rainbow or see a fallin' star
A set of twins, or a classic car
A four leaf clover, or a two dollar bill
It's so rare that it's so unreal
And I don't know how to get over her smile
I wonder what she's doin'
(What's goin' on?)
I think about her every once in awhile
(Once in awhile)
I should've came with a ring, set a date for next May
Guess I thought that you'd wait
Now I hate that I took so long
Played around wit' her now she's gone
Now my smiles turned to frowns, ups turned to downs
And I don't know where I'm goin'
(Now, now, now, now)
I think about her every once in awhile
We argued like Archie and Edith
Like Ike turned on Tina but I really didn't mean it
I was raised not to hit a woman
Especially not the one I'm lovin'
But when the good turned to bad happy to sad
I wish we could take it back
(How I miss you baby)
I think about her every once in awhile
Like when I spot a rainbow or see a fallin' star
A set of twins, or a classic car
A four leaf clover or a two dollar bill
It's so rare that it's so unreal
I don't know how to get over her smile
I wonder what she's doin' now
I think about her every once in awhile
Your like a star shinning in the broad daylight
Something you don't see all the time
And now I finally recognize
That I shoulda made you all mine
