Girls Are Like Diamonds - By Amy Court and Joey Daigneault
Oh, but the girl’s like a diamond you say
Searching for places to carve her name
Blinding and breaking each tactic you choose
Shimmering up through a smoky bar
Casting back all that you think you are
The prettiest something you ever could lose
If all you want is all you can hold in your hand
Then through your fingers she’ll fall
Leave you empty, just empty
Oh, but the girl’s like a diamond these days
And try as you might you can’t stay away
She opens her eyes and your life’s flying past
So you handle her like your discovery
There are facets on her only you can see
A beauty like this is one never could last
If all you want is all you can hold in your hand
Then through your fingers she’ll fall
Leave you empty, just empty
Look at you now
Sad little lessons you muddle through
After the desperate angling, the clinging, the taking
It’s she who owns you
If all you want is all you can hold in your hand
Then through your fingers she’ll fall
Leave you empty, just empty
