Patty Loveless - Diamond In My Crown lyrics

rate me

As each long day rolls by and falls behind me<br />

In the lonely night there's a peacefulness I've found<br />

Though I'm weary even then when I rise to start again<br />

There'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown<br />

<br />

I have wasted all that life has laid before me<br />

I have watched as all the green fields turn to brown<br />

But I shall not disavow all these ties that bind me now<br />

There'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown<br />

<br />

Shining down some day I know<br />

Brighter than all their streets of gold<br />

When the burdens that I carry I will lay down<br />

And the sorrows I have known<br />

I'll see them all overthrown<br />

There'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown<br />

Then the closer I will be to my sweetest victory<br />

There'll be a diamond a diamond in my crown
