Diamonds
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.
You told me you love me
you told me you care
But when I'm around you
it's like I'm not there.
I need a reminder
something I can see
Something on my finger shines so brightly.
Don't you know
diamonds are a girl's best friend
When you go
they stay with me until the end.
Don't you know
diamonds are a girl's best
best friend
When you go
they stay with me until the end.
Don't want your money
don't want your key
Diamonds - love don't come for free.
Don't want your money
don't want your key
Diamonds - love don't come for free.
They say you need some roses
but roses do die
You gave me some candy
it melted
nice try.
I'm not that demanding
I have simple taste
I just want a token that can't go to waste - Diamonds.
Don't want your money
don't want your key
. . .
Don't you know
diamonds are a girl's best friend
. . .
Don't want your money
don't want your key
. . .
Don't want your money
don'r want your key
Diamonds - love don't come for free.
