Intro

Verse 1

When I was a child,

You captured my devotion

I spent so many hours

Exploring mixed emotions

All of the times you spoke to me

All of the things you provoked in me

I'll always love you

Refrain

Diamond Dave

No one can hold a candle

Nothing else is quite the same

Pretty Dave

I do always remember

I still carry such a flame

Verse 2

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

And all of the missed opportunity

I'll always love you

Refrain

Diamond Dave

No one can hold a candle

Nothing else is quite the same

Pretty Dave

I do always remember

I still carry such a flame

Bridge

Refrain

Diamond Dave

No one can hold a candle

Nothing else is quite the same

Pretty Dave

I do always remember

Outro

Diamond Dave

I do always remember

Pretty Dave

I do always remember you

And nothing else is quite the same

because I can take it
