Diamond girl

[ Song to listen click here ]

I’m a diamond girl
have always been

I wear them everywhere
in my hair ‘n in my dreams

they sparkle in the sky
& I know you’re near me.

I didn’t want to
watch you go

I held your hand
close to me

no I didn’t want
to let you leave

for you took

the dearest part of me
yes you took

the clear sweet
heart of me.

I’m a diamond girl
they were yours before

& now I wear them
for you here

your love was like an oak
it held me up, the branches

wide & free, 'n from up there
the world I viewed

was safe in your love.

I didn’t want to
watch you go

I held your hand so
close to me

no I didn’t want
to let you leave

so I lied and said
it was the right time,

my time to be alone

yes I lied
to make it easy

no I didn’t want
to let you leave

for you took

the dearest part of me,
I didn’t want to let you go

yes you took the clear sweet
heart of me.

I’m a diamond girl
have always been

& now I’ll wear them
on the beach

close to the ocean
where we’ve always been

yes we’ve always been
together,

I’m a diamond girl
a Queen with starlight

in my eyes,

I’m a diamond girl
‘cos that’s the way

you made me.

No I didn’t want
to let you leave

so I lied
to make it easy.

No I didn’t want
to let you leave

for you took

the dearest part of me
yes you took the clear sweet

heart of me.
