Diamonds And Tears Lyrics

Spent my life looking for

Happiness like it was buried treasure

Somewhere behind the secret door

Surely there were riches beyond measure

I would take my sanity to task

Walk across broken glass to find it

And no mountain top was left unclimbed

Before I ever took the time to take a look inside me

These dreams of mine these precious years

Oh how they shine like diamonds and tears

Oh sure, there was love

And of course I thought it'd be my salvation

And in a way, I guess he was

There's always room for higher education

Yes, I have said and heard the word goodbye

Felt the blade and turned the knife sideways

I'd crossed bridges while they'd burn

To keep from losing what I've learned along the way

These dreams of mine these precious years

Oh how they shine like diamonds and tears

These dreams of mine these precious years

Oh how they shine like diamonds and tears

The slow grace of time, the joy and the fears

Oh how they shine like diamonds and tears
