Diamond Sea - Damien Jurado

When I was a diamond

Fell into the diamond sea

Substitute starlight

A prison for the rainbow stream

Would you tell me that you want me

Would you throw me back lightly into the diamond sea

Shine on, see through me

An expensive reflection is seen

Chandellier go-strap

Who’s danced on the fingers of queens

Would you tell me that you want me

Would you throw me back lightly into the diamond sea

Jealous of gold

I’m emulous into the fire

My love is not shared

It is only for you I can shine

If you decided it is not diamonds you wanted

It is gold

Let me go on

I would rather just drown and go on

Would you tell me that you want me

Would you throw me back lightly

Would you tell me that you want me

Would you throw me back lightly into the diamond sea
