Diamonds Lyrics

Mercury Rev Diamonds

Look how the sun, captured by the rain
Glimmers and falls and lands in golden balls
Like a bracelet hung from a spider's web
For me to show to you, like gifts

That you won't forget
For as long as you live

See how the rain, captured by the leaves
Shimmers and falls and lives on in diamond balls
Like a necklace hung over a lemon branch
For me to show to you, like gifts

That you won't forget
For as long as you live

Watch how the stars, captured by the sky
Appear to die before our eyes and live on, in other ways
Well, tonight they're mine
For me to show, for me to shower you, like gifts

That you won't forget
For as long as you live

And you will always have
For I will always give them to you, to you
