She was always something special
Diamond shining bright in the rain
Everybody dreams of angels
No one would ever know
How much I love you so Now it all seems funny, kinda like a dream
Things aint always what they seem
What a shame, what happened today
You were always on my mind
Shine like a summer day in the sun
Slowly wishes turn to sadness
Time dont heal a broken gun
I wish I never let you go Even now I just want you to know
That it all seems funny, kinda like a dream
Things aint always what they seem
What a shame, what happened today
Now shes breakin hearts in heaven
Shinin bright in the sky
I still hear of us in the wind
I still think of you in the night, oh yeah
Well I guess youll never know
How much I need her so Now it all seems funny, kinda like a dream
Things aint always what they seem
What a shame, what a shame
What happened today
Now it all seems funny, kinda like a dream
Things aint always what they seem
What a shame, what happened today

FYI. This song is about Jayne Mansfield, a blonde bombshell who was a popular actress and pin-up girl in the 50's and 60's. She was often compared to Marilyn Monroe, and also died young. She was killed in a car accident when she was 34. "Now she's breakin' hearts in heaven." so the song goes.
They came to my house after a concert one night w Faster Pussycat and hung out. Best night of my LIFE!!! Acoustic guitar, bud, and beers. Texas living baby!!!!
