If Teardrops Were Diamonds Lyrics

If Teardrops Were Diamonds
By Dwight Yoakam and Willie Nelson
If teardrops were diamonds and only mine were used
They could pave every highway coast to coast
And not be close to thru
If teardrops were diamonds, cold blue
And if heartaches were rubies stacked up just like stone
It would leave a mountain 10 miles built by mine alone
If heartaches were rubies, mine alone
You might begin to understand the price love has to pay for being wrong
If sad thoughts were emeralds not counting in between
Just half the ones I??ve had today could turn the whole world green
If sad thoughts were emeralds, and the world??d turn green
You might just get the message that there??s more to loneliness than can be seen
If teardrops were diamonds and only mine were used
