Burning Diamonds

Burning Diamonds

Darling you live so damn high, and I don't think they told you this

What you see is what you get, and darling you just don't see it

What you see is what you get, and darling you just don't see it

Oh my love how I would love to bring you down

Oh how I would love to tell you of this world as I know it

From your days of dream and wonder

From your days of dream and wonder

Ever so slightly imperfect, in this crack I'll drive a wedge

Cut you down to size for me, One day I'll see a diamond burning

Yes dear you're a true jewel

So everyone can see through you

And sometimes I'd like to drown in guilt;

It just goes to show how precious you are

Yes dear you're a true jewel

So everyone can see through you

Sometimes I'd like to drown in guilt

Now it just goes to show how precious you are, my dear
