"Diamonds" lyrics

Diamonds

Oh, get away and don't come back
Who do you think you're fooling
With lies like that?
You have dreams that set the rain on fire
Burning with a cheap desire
And it's plain as grey
What you say
Have meanings of their own

My love
My love
She don't need diamonds
My love
My love
She don't need diamonds
Don't need diamonds

My love's more than a sweet dream
And she don't need diamonds
She shakes her hip to the tambourine
She don't need diamonds

If you can't love me for nothing
They you can't love me at all
And it's plain as grey
What you say
Have meanings of their own

We all got to dance
And take a chance
But babe you should have stayed at home

My love
My love
She don't need diamonds
My love
My love
She don't need diamonds
Don't need diamonds

She don't need diamonds
She don't need diamonds

If you can't love me for nothing
They you can't love me at all
And it's plain as grey
What you say
Have meanings of their own

We all got to dance
And take a chance
But babe you should have stayed at home

My love
My love
She don't need diamonds
My love
My love
She don't need diamonds
Don't need diamonds

My love
My love
She don't need diamonds
She don't need diamonds
My love
She don't need
She don't need diamonds

My love
My love
She don't need diamonds
My love
My love
She don't need diamonds

My love
Oh, my love
She don't need diamonds
My love
My love
She don't need
She don't need

My love
My love
She don't need diamonds
My love
My love
She don't need diamonds
