The Diamond
Shara Nova
You are the brightest diamond
I can see you shining
For miles, and miles, and miles, and miles
Everybody here's wearing long faces
But you
And Mary wants to hold your face
And kiss you for her birthday
Are you coming?
I can see you shining
I can see you shining
You are the brightest diamond
Hidden in my pocket
Oh, how glorious you must feel, splendid
You must feel, splendid
But you have spit out beauty
Like an idiot
Why did you chew up shinies
With a paper shredder?
You are the brightest diamond
Hidden on my wrist
You are now untouchable
Now untouchable
Now untouchable
Reaching through the space between
Your universe and mine
A warm light shines
And will until all breath and sigh
Expend, expend
