Molly Johnson Diamond In My Hand
I've been overwhelmed, I've been made to fade
I've been all alone, I've left beds unmade
I've left things unsaid. I have run and wept
I can walk away or I can dig real deep
I can keep on looking or I can fall asleep
laid out on my back stare into the night
where I swear I see signs of life
I would light your torch, I could carry your flame
if you had the chance would you do the same
all I know is what I have got a diamond in my hand
You can be my friend or something else to me
you can lend a hand or just wash out to sea
when I look around I know what I need
But I have found a jewel in this rocky ground
held it in my hand turned it all around
I stretched out my arms, held them way up high
and I looked to the sky, the dark blue sky
Cause I got nothing here, nothing left to lose
to say anymore would just confuse
all I know is what I have, got a diamond in my hand
I would light your torch, I could carry your flame
if you had the chance would you do the same
all I know is what I have got a diamond in my hand
You can take it day by day
save your soul any old way
can't ya hear me calling
quick now, think you're falling
