Almost Diamonds Lyrics - Marc Almond

You kissed my grateful skin 

And left a chain of bites and bruises 

I'm sorry when you grin 

Almost diamonds for the losers 

I'll swim inside your tears 

And wander through your rooms of silence 

The motive crystal clear 

Your tongue is love 

And your heart is violence 

Almost diamonds 

scratched perfection 

Almost diamonds 

Tears in glycerine

I spied you kissing her 

You faked your love 

My broken brother 

Everybody burns 

Secrets spill and smiles are smothered 

You have to roll the dice 

Pain is two 

and fire is sixes 

Vengance feels nice 

I know the shine 

Behind your tricks 

Is almost diamonds 

Scratched perfection 

Almost diamonds 

Tears in glycerine 

Photos 

Who would have thought 

it would end like this 

You gave a stranger 

a dangerous kiss' 

Now your pretty eyes 

Say these precious lies 

We're just beautiful imitations 

Catch our teardrops 

as they fall 

You know we nearly had it all 

Fallen tears of glycerine 

Gone is all of what we dream 

Almost diamonds 

Scratched perfection 

Dark reflections 

Love won't find us 

only in dreams
