Diamonds And Tears Lyrics - Singles - Bogguss Suzy

Spent my life looking for 

Happiness like it was buried treasure 

Somewhere behind the 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 it'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 crossed bridges while they'd burn 

To keep from losing 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
