Diamonds - Illy

Let’s run away together//

escape from the parade//

it’s better late than never//

to be on our way//

don’t need a map, just follow the track//

don’t need a map, just follow the track//

diamond cuts a diamond//

and she said, im leaving ima take flight//

when iv gone i wont ever come back//

and i know its not fair, you can come or stay there//

its on you, but i couldn’t take that//

well i couldn’t take that, she turned down any offer of a map//

said shed find her own way, heading off familiar tracks//

we caught between war and the opposite of that//

but thats what you expect when two opposites attract//

me and her walking two straight lines my equal//

lead to the answer, she more than a sign//

sparkle in the limelight, its more than the shine//

and it ours, not hers, not mine, and wel be fine but still//

she’d lay you down, heart bleeding through the mattress//

offer you the world and not leave you with an atlas//

soft words and fast actions, she catch it//

she held out her hand, without ever looking backwards said//

Let’s run away together//

escape from the parade//

it’s better late than never//

to be on our way//

don’t need a map, just follow the track//

don’t need a map, just follow the track//

diamond cuts a diamond//

what a tangled web we weave, she said she couldn’t breathe//

knocked off her feet but she’d never retreat, and me//

although first cuts deep, its a release//

and im too lost to try and stop the bleed//

i could never let it be, cant decide if im everything you need//

or if i need to be your everything for me and my reasons//

guardian angels fighting inner demons//

and clarity of thoughts impeded, still im//

in the trenches for her, ride to the ends of the earth//

lost in the sunset, done spent what its worth//

but here we are, hand in hand, for better or worse off//

my jewel, vice versa//

as much beauty as danger when you talk about trust//

but she’s a trip too good to pass up//

soft touch, hard love//

she closed her eyes let herself go, felt the rush///

Let’s run away together//

escape from the parade//

it’s better late than never//

to be on our way//

don’t need a map, just follow the track//

don’t need a map, just follow the track//

diamond cuts a diamond//
