Tommy Shaw - Diamond lyrics

"See you boys later" "All right" "Play hard" My friends are all detectives They liked to be protective 'Cause they knew I was the marrying kind But this time they were helpless Their Police sk**s were useless They knew I'd never pay them any mind She was shinny She was bright If that spelled trouble Well all right Guess we'll just have to wait and see She looked like a diamond to me Love's already hard enough But when your heart gets tough You can miss the simple things You walk right past a rose As if you never had a nose Then one day A little bell rings Nothing matters anymore Time to get up off the floor Time to end this misery Yeah she looked like a diamond to me After all my years in this place My fears slip slowly into space Nothing but blue sky above And a sky writer writes the word love Angels must have been on guard 'Cause man it hit me hard It was the real thing after all And I was looking up to see If she was looking back at me Yeah I knew she saw me fall She'd been shattered once before But that won't happen any more Broken gla** ain't what I see She looked like a diamond all right She looked like a light in the night She looked like a diamond to me Gonna let it shine shine shine all night
