about

My very first recording and 2nd release on my own label following the publishing rights transfer from Koffe an Kreem on Jan 1st, 2021.
A R&B/Soul song with a modern feel.

lyrics

Ooh, Ooh
Looking for diamonds in the sand
Looking for diamonds in the sand

Why would you do this to us?
And how could you break all of the trust
And after all that we have seen
I can’t believe there’s no more we
Can’t believe it’s only me

You said we couldn’t achieve
Said you just had to leave
How could I know that was your plan
And I still don’t understand it
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
I still don’t understand it
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)

Trying to be bold
Trying hard not to fold
You left me out in the cold
Truly, all that glitters is not gold
Hazy, crazy, baby, this side of the fence
Greener pastures are your defiance

Should have seen in between the lines
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
Thought we had such a precious find
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
I just don’t get that, no
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
I don’t get it; I just don’t get that, babe
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)

Played me a cold, cold hand
Just as we were seeing the sun rise
A cold, cold hand
Just as we could start to see the light
All the love and affection, hopes of forever
You tossed them in to the sea
We call the never never

(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
How could you do that?
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
I just don’t get that, no
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
I don’t get it, I don’t, don’t get that, no
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)

Misty feelings, smoky, smoky nights
And all the candlelit loving, chill a bottle of wine
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
Shoulda, coulda, woulda, makes no difference
‘Cause, shoulda, coulda, woulda, only causes defence
We coulda had it oh so tight
Instead of all those sleepless nights
But your looking for the your diamonds
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
We meant nothing to you
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
Nothing to you
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
And I was a fool
(Looking for diamonds in the sand)
I just don’t get that babe
