Her Diamonds
Rob Thomas


Oh what the hell she says
I just can't win for losing
And she lays back down
Man there's so many times
I don't know what I’m doin'
Like I don't know now

By the light of the moon
She rubs her eyes
Says it's funny how the night
Can make you blind
I can just imagine
And I don't know what I’m supposed to do
But if she feels bad then I do too
So I let her be

And she says oooh
I can't take no more
Her tears like diamonds on the floor
And her diamonds bring me down
Cuz I can't help her now
She’s down in it
She tried her best and now she can't win it's
Hard to see them on the ground
Her diamonds falling down

She sits down and stares into the distance
And it takes all night
And I know I could break her concentration
But it don't feel right

By the light of the moon
She rubs her eyes
Sits down on the bed and starts to cry
And there's something less about her
And I don't know what I’m supposed to do
So I sit down and I cry too
And don't let her see

And she says oooh
I can't take no more
Her tears like diamonds on the floor
And her diamonds bring me down
Cuz I can't help her now
She’s down in it
She tried her best and now she can't win it's
Hard to see them on the ground
Her diamonds falling down

She shuts out the night
Tries to close her eyes
If she can find daylight
She’ll be all right
She’ll be all right
Just not tonight

And she says oooh
I can't take no more
Her tears like diamonds on the floor
And her diamonds bring me down
Cuz I can't help her now
She’s down in it
She tried her best and now she can't win it's
Hard to see them on the ground
Her diamonds falling down

I'm so sorry that Freyja isn't here with you where she belongs. What part of MB do you live in? You can email me at mrajotte@shaw.ca if you like. 3 months out is such a short time, I remember I was still in a trance at that point. Almost a year later, things are a little easier. Sending you much love. xox

Wow, I've never heard that song before. Thanks for sharing it.

Your bond and love and experience with little Freyja will make you hear things, read things, feel things in a whole new light. What beautiful lyrics to feel a connection to. I remember hearing Broken from Lifehouse and nearly driving off the side of the road because it so spoke to how I was feeling that day. I have been on this journey a little longer than you (10 months) but know how 3 months out felt. Allow yourself that though. It is so important that you let yourself embrace every emotion that the day brings you, those that feel good as well as those that hurt like hell. Thank you for sharing this beautiful song.

HI There,

Just wanted to let you know that I made a pair of Angel Wings for Freja. Please have a look at the Memorial Boutique on my blog.

Strength to you.
