The sEm7miles or the smoke
Or Fis it the gentle wAmords that were spoken 
Or the thCings that were nGot said at Call.

Buy me a new pair of diamonds she said

Some that will sparkle long after I'm dead

Let me be remembered not for what I've said, for what I've carried around

Buy me a watch now

Not just any kind, one that will make up for all the lost time
