Christel Alsos
Diamonds in the Rough
How can I recognize myself
When all I once was feels gone
Take glitter and give it to the wind
That's me
But then you took a broom and swept
Every corner inside my heart
Found courage to play my part again
As me

Have I ever been this sure before?
Like I've known it from the start
Even though we still are diamonds in the rough
Oh, I can see us shine
Oh, I can see us shine

True beauty is to be changed
I opened up by your ways
Didn't paint me all over again
Just found a new frame
A brand new shade
But still the same

Have I ever been this sure before?
Like I've known it from the start
Even though we still are diamonds in the rough
Oh, I can see us shine
I was broken, now I'm fine
I think I left myself in someone else
Like I was the key, he was the shelf
You found me lost
Like sound at the end of a song
But your reflection proved me wrong
I was there all along

I have never been this sure before
And I've known it from the start
Even though we still are diamonds in the rough
Oh, I can see us shine

Even though we still are diamonds in the rough
Oh, I can see us shine
I was broken, now I'm fine
