Diamonds And Tears - Suzy Bogguss

作曲：Matraca Berg/Gary Harrison

Spent my life looking for

Happiness like it was

Buried treasure

Somewhere behind a 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 look

Inside me

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

Oh sure there was love

And of course I thought he'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

But I'd 'cross bridges while they burn

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

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
