When I was a child, You captured my devotion I spent so many hours Exploring mixed emotions All of the ways you spoke to me All of the things you provoked in me I'll always love you Diamond Dave No one can hold a candle Nothing else is quite the same Pretty Dave I'll always remember I still carry such a flame When you left the band I couldn't understand it But I've forgiven you Now that you've recommitted All of the time you spent away from me All of the missed opportunity I'll always love you Diamond Dave No one can hold a candle Nothing else is quite the same Pretty Dave I'll always remember I still carry such a flame Come on, Dave Show me what you got I can take it I'll always love you Diamond Dave No one can hold a candle Nothing else is quite the same Pretty Dave I'll always remember Diamond Dave I'll always remember Pretty Dave I'll always remember I still carry such a flame
