Diamonds in the rain
|
|
In the first dream you were a driver
|
And I was a car, we didn't get real far
|
We took a highway full of black top roadkill
|
Could that be me?
|
Could that be you?
|
(Could that be me?)
|
|
In the 2nd dream you were a rifle
|
And I was a deer but with no shelter near
|
You were camouflaged
|
In pain I couldn't see through
|
Could that be me?
|
Could that be you?
|
(Could that be me?)
|
|
The slow striptease of time
|
Releases now the seven veils
|
And ages of sweet wanderlust
|
Steals about a half step from my stride
|
And hold me now accountable
|
And throws a finger at my trust
|
And barks like a big dog at my pride
|
But shows me diamonds in the rain
|
Diamonds in the rain that'll sparkle till I die
|
Diamonds in the rain
|
|
In this recurring dream
|
You said you were lonely
|
I said everyone's lonely
|
And not just you
|
Some people just hide their loneliness
|
Behind the coats of others
|
Could that be me?
|
Could that be you?
|
(Could that be me?)
|
|
Please don't let that be me and you!
|
|
Diamonds in the rain that'll sparkle till I die
|
Diamonds in the rain
