If diamonds weren't a girl's best friend, she wouldn't have one

The way the reservations have been made
is just a damn sure way of saying i'm getting.....paid?
the way you've been all over me all night
is whispering that tonight, we just might
we might be able to heal each other's scars
our battle wounds from other lovers before us
and there's reason to cry hunny, because i'm here now
and if that doesn't mean a thing to you
then why are you still standing in the door way
like a beautiful goddess who could strike me dead
at any given moment, at any poorly thought out glance
like some awkward kid that comes closer to being like me
and i'm letting you know now that i'm not gonna quit
this means war, this means anything goes
i'll watch the way they place my food on the table
and make sure your hand never wanders to far
never gets too close to the plate, never to close to my heart
the way i'm like your disposable lover, throw me away tomorrow
i'm only good for getting the information
you're like a sex spy with your stealthy one liners
and damn girl, i haven't seen any finer
i love the way you always say that there's just no chemistry
when every night there's gotta be something going on
or coming off, she's always the one to get undressed first
and i don't know if that makes this whole thing better or worse
she could totally be falling in love with me and wanting me
letting me see her other world, her quiet place
or she could be just another whore, i'm her favorite bore
the way to relieve stress is to take it out when she's out of her dress
i'm just sitting here an hour later, on the edge of the bed majorly depressed
and it's really nothing new, and there's nothing she can do
but i just want something in my life that's so sure and so true
it must be something that no one can take, that no one could break
something that i could easily just hold inside, a girl i can hold tonight
but that's all just wishes and pleas, and itches like fleas
so tonight let's share our secrets with the sheets
every inch of you under inch of me
this isn't one of those dirty jokes
it's you and me, fulfilling all of our hidden hopes
and after all of this, the sun will rise
and all of our words and actions
will be painted on the sky
will we keep on living like this love
or in about a week, will we just die?
another girl, another curse
another reason for another verse
but all i can say now
as i kick off my shoes is that
this could be so much worse
and now that this is over
and we're last week
let's go back to our own beds
filter thoughts from our heads
and put this story to rest
just like all of the rest
between you and me
i just hope you see
that i could be all you need
but when it gets way too late
there's no second date
i'm first class, first rate baby
i know you won't cry
i was just the next best thing
