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
