Diamonds

In my narrow point of view, I see what I have to do

I can make it through the storm

You got me to keep you warm

And baby I got you

One dark night and a long road ahead of you

Never been so cold

And that future ghost is ahead of you

And he don’t lie

I see a shape of a house in the wilderness

Not even one brave man

Is gonna walk that mile from the curse to the legacy

I must try

I see the sign saying not that way

It’s gonna break you down, it’s gonna make you pay

You only listen when there’s no more room to grow

Somewhere right in front of me

No time to lose that memory

This life, there’s always gonna be sorrow

But that won’t happen tomorrow

Stand up and find that inner strength

This time, you go to any length

I know that we ain’t never been higher

We ain’t never been higher

If tears were diamonds, I’d be a rich man now

Cover myself in silver and gold

Eyes of a child that will never grow old

If tears were diamonds, I’d be a rich man now

In the light of the moon there’s a silhouette

Not even one brave man

Is gonna walk that mile from the hearse to the funeral

I don’t cry

I see the mirror saying not that fool

He’s gonna take you down, he’s gonna be that cruel

You only listen when there’s no more room to grow
