Tony Banks - Diamonds Aren't So Hard lyrics

rate me

(And diamonds aren't so hard to find)

Don't let it bring you down

Your woman's gone and left you

The taxman's here he's knocking on your door - oh

Don't let it bring you down

Your brand new house is burning

They're dumping toxic waste in your backyard - oh

Your next door neighbour's gone and won the pools

The life's so bad you wish that it was all over - over

You and I

Could leave this all behind

Dream a little

Leave ourselves behind

Come with me

Where dragons rule the air

And diamonds aren't so hard to find

And come what may

Heroes never fail

And time stands still

No matter if you're young or old

Don't let it bring you down

Nothing lasts for ever

Even female movie stars grow old - oh

We try to break the rules and never age

We try so hard but everything's in vain

Then one day you wake and find that it's all over - over

You and I

Could leave this all behind

Dream a little

Leave ourselves behind

Come with me

Where dragons rule the air

And diamonds aren't so hard to find

And come what may

Heroes never fail

And time stands still

No matter if you're young or old

So come with me

Where dragons rule the air

And diamonds aren't so hard to find...
