Lyrics

This will be the day
That u will hear me say
That I will never run away

I am here for u
Love is meant for two
Now tell me what u're gonna do

If I gave u diamonds and pearls
Would u be a happy boy or a girl
If I could I would give u the world
But all I can do is just offer u my love

Which one of us is right
If we always fight
Why can't we just let love decide (let love decide)

Am I the weaker man
Because I understand
That love must be the master plan (love is the master plan)

If I gave u diamonds and pearls
Would u be a happy boy or a girl
If I could I would give u the world
But all I can do is just offer u my love

D to the I to the a to the m
O to the n to the d to the pearls of love
D to the I to the a to the m (to the m)
O to the n to the d to the pearls of love

There will come a time (there will come a time)
When love will blow your mind (blow your mind)
And everything u'll look 4 u'll find (take a look inside)

That will be the time (that will be the time)
That everything will shine (forever)
So bright it makes u colorblind (u will be color blind)

If I gave u diamonds and pearls
Would u be a happy boy or a girl
If I could I would give u the world
All I can do is just offer u my love

If I gave u diamonds and pearls (pearls)
Would u be a happy boy or a girl (yeah yeah)
If I could I would give u the world (give u the world)
All I can do is just offer u my love (all I can do)

If I gave u diamonds and pearls (diamonds)
Would u be, would u, would u
(Would ya, would ya, would ya be happy little baby)
A happy boy or a girl
If I could I would give u the world
