Little White Diamonds

I wish that my baby was waiting at home
Sleeping in our bed with her nightgown on
But she’s not there, no
Looks like I’m sleeping alone
Wake up in the morning and I work 'til night
Want to love her long in the candle-light
But she’s not there, no
Looks like I’m sleeping alone
When she’s gone in the night the air turns thin and cold
Like the little white diamonds of her long-lost soul
No she’s not there, no
Looks like I’m sleeping alone
She sailed across the ocean looking for herself
Who am I to blame her when I did as well
Oh now she’s not there no
Looks like I’m sleeping alone
Lay awake and wonder with a worried mind
Was it worth the heartache or just wasting time
Oh now she’s not there no
Looks like I’m sleeping alone
When she’s gone, in the night the air turns thin and cold
Like the little white diamonds of her long-lost soul
No she’s not there no
Looks like I’m sleeping alone
I wish that my baby was waiting at home
Sleeping in our bed with her nightgown on
But she’s not there no
Looks like I’m sleeping alone
