Lyrics
You had a diamond, plans so grand,
Asked me to take your hand,
Whispers of love in the night,
But shadows masked the light.
Our families' dreams so wild,
Saw us as perfect, free and mild,
You brought the sun, I brought the storm,
Love in an old, twisted form.
Oh, the high hopes,
And a diamond ring,
But baby, in this world,
It doesn’t mean a thing.
You poured the champagne,
For our midnight dance,
But here we are now,
Lost in a trance.
In the hallway, echoes blend,
A future we couldn’t defend,
Dreams were castles in the air,
But I left them hanging there.
No one tells you, hearts can break,
In every silent step we take,
You saw the dawn in my eyes,
But darkness covered the skies.
Oh, the golden dreams,
And the promised land,
But baby, in this life,
Nothing’s as we planned.
You poured the champagne,
For the perfect toast,
But here we are now,
Haunted by ghosts.
The party fades, lights grow dim,
We’re left with shadows of what’s been,
You asked for forever so true,
But doubts, they grew and grew.
Oh, we walked the line,
Dreams spread wide,
But baby, in this life,
They just collide.
You poured the champagne,
For our perfect night,
But here we stand now,
Lost in the fight.
In the silence, love's a ghost,
Haunted by what we lost most,
You gave your heart, I gave my fears,
Now we're left with unshed tears.
Oh, the high hopes,
And the sparkling glow,
But baby, in this world,
It’s just a show.
You poured the champagne,
For the golden hour,
But here we are now,
Without the power.
Here’s to futures, unknown ways,
Love’s mysteries, endless maze,
Raise a glass to what we had,
A fleeting love, moments so sad.
Oh, the high hopes,
And the diamond dream,
But baby, in this world,
It’s not what it seems.
You poured the champagne,
For a love so bright,
But here we stand now,
In the fading light.
You had a diamond, plans so grand,
Asked me to take your hand,
But darling, shadows filled the night,
I couldn't see the light.
You brought the glow, I brought the rain,
Love's twisted, sweet pain,
With heavy hearts, we walk these streets,
Where dreams and reality meet.
Oh, the high hopes,
And the golden ring,
But baby, in this world,
It doesn’t mean a thing.
You poured the champagne,
For the perfect night,
But here we are now,
In the dimming light.
You brought the glow, I brought the rain,
Love's twisted, sweet pain,
With heavy hearts, we walk these streets,
Where dreams and reality meet.
Oh, the high hopes,
And the golden ring,
But baby, in this world,
It doesn’t mean a thing.
You poured the champagne,
For the perfect night,
But here we are now,
In the dimming light.
