DIAMONDS BY THE YARD
As I lay down with my lady
The sounds of the night keep us warm
Living a city life called maybe
Tonight there's no reason to be strong
Romantic poets guard the darkness
My my my all at such an early age
An old man sheds a tear as he sees her locket
He thought she was lost in an Indian raid
Somewhere in these night lights lies the answer
And you can get diamonds by the yard
And Tiffany dreams and porcelain dancers
And an old black man playing blues guitar
Midnight I surrender
I live beneath your ancient spell
You've been my lover since I can't remember
You saved my life with the stories you tell
Somewhere in these night lights lies the answer
And you can get diamonds by the yard
And Tiffany dreams and porcelain dancers
And an old black man playing blues guitar
Midnight I surrender
I live beneath your ancient spell
You've been my lover since I can't remember
You saved my life with the stories you tell
