Lyrics
Diamond Dancer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She was dancing so hard
She danced herself into a diamond
Dancing all by herself
Dancing all by herself
And not minding
Doing the the thing as she dreamed it
Doing the the thing as she dreamed it
Her skin was sky blue
Her skin was sky blue
Under the lights
Diamond dancer, diamond dancer
She was dancing so hard
She danced herself into a diamond
Dancing all by herself
Dancing all by herself
And not minding
And the one thing on her mind was
The one thing on her mind was:
It's time I gave the world my light
It's time I gave the world my light
Starting tonight
