Diamonds In the Dark

Looking back now I regret

You're a promise that I never kept

Waitin' in my room in vain

Time winds back and back again

Outside the school gates

We first met in a basement near the park

(Diamonds in the dark)

We danced all night and then we kissed

Your smile like diamonds in the dark

It's a long way to fall

When the words stray no one calls

We would have little children

We would be together forever

(Diamonds in the dark)

We would live on Delancey Street

Then you cut your hair and it ended there

It's a long way to fall, long way to fall

When the words stray no one calls

Looking back now I regret

You're a promise that I never kept

Waitin' in my room in vain

Time winds back and back again

Now I've nothing left to lose

I'm clinging to a cliff face starin' at your shoes

And tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, do you feel the same?

Or are we just waking to a day we can't

A day that we can't change?

And now there's this no mans land

Between you and me

(Diamonds in the dark)

But I still wander in between

The sheets and streets and other places we've been

It's a long way to fall, long way to fall

When the words stray no one calls, such a long way to fall

It's a long way to fall, long way to fall

When the words stray no one calls

Looking back now I regret

You're a promise that I never kept

Waitin' in my room in vain

Time winds back and back again

And again and back again

Back again and back

Back again and back

Back again and back

Back again and back

Back again and back

And back again and back

Back again and back

And back again and back again
