Diamond In The Rough lyrics

as a little girl i came down to the water with a little stone in my hand and it would shimmer and sing and i knew everything in a little while i got steeped in authority heaven only knows what when wrong when there is nothing so cruel than to bury that jewel when it was mine all along and i'm gonna find it you're shining, i can see you you're smiling, that's enough well i'm holding onto you, like a diamond in the rough like a diamond in the rough ever now and then i can see that i am getting somewhere where i have to go is so deep i was angry back then, and you know i still am i have lost too much sleep and i'm gonna find it you're shining, i can see you you're smiling, that's enough well i'm holding onto you, like a diamond in the rough like a diamond in the rough snake's in the grass better step on the gas in my dreams i go down by the water with a little girl in my arms and we shimmer and sing and we know everything as a little girl i came down you're shining, i can see you you're smiling, that's enough well i'm holding onto you, like a diamond in the rough like a diamond in the rough
