Diamond Lyrics by Sometymes Why

Your Heart Is a Glorious Machine

2009

[Verse 1- Aoife O'Donovan]
I don't know
Who I am
Where to go
Where to come from
I don't even know who to trust
If you take out a loan
Pay it back
Pay it forward
Sometimes you just have to adjust
Just don't place the blame
On a face you can't name
And be good to me
[Verse 2- Aoife O'Donovan]
When I think of the things
That make it good
Make me love you
I just want to write you a song
But my mind always drifts
To what's bad
And I'm crazy
For letting it go on so long
If you just want to try
You can make me so high
If you're good to me
[Chorus- Aoife O'Donovan, Kristin Andreassen, & Ruth Ungar Merenda]
My baby's
Got a diamond
In his hand
And he tells me things
That I don't
Understand
Why does my baby
Have a diamond
In his hand
I guess I'd better find
Another man
[Verse 3- Aoife O'Donovan]
If I wanted you back
Would you come
Would you love me
'Cause all that I need
Is your touch
Would you stay by my side
Keep me safe
And be faithful
Or am I just asking too much
I should keep you around
So that when I feel down
You'll be good to me
[Chorus- Aoife O'Donovan, Kristin Andreassen, & Ruth Ungar Merenda]
My baby's
Got a diamond
In his hand
And he tells me things
That I don't
Understand
Why does my baby
Have a diamond
In his hand
I guess I'll just say yes
And take his hand
'Cause I'm never gonna find
A better man
[Outro- Aoife O'Donovan, Kristin Andreassen, & Ruth Ungar Merenda]
(Ooooh, ooooh)
Be good to me
