I have lost too much sleep
Where I have to go is so deep
I was angry back then
Every now and then I can see
You're shining I can see you
It would shimmer and sing
And we knew everything
Like a diamond in the rough
But in a little while I got steeped in authority
Snakes in the grass got to step on the gas
Than to bury that jewel
Like a diamond in the rough
You're smiling that's enough
I'm gonna find it
And I'm holding on to you
That I'm getting somewhere
I am holding on to you
Snakes in the grass got to step on the gas
But I'm gonna find it
I'm holding on to you
In my dreams I go down, I go down
You're smiling that's enough
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough
It was mine all along
And we know everything, everything
Like a diamond in the rough
And you know I still am
Like a diamond in the rough
In my dreams I go down by the water
Like a diamond in the rough
You're smiling that's enough
And we shimmer and sing
Heaven only knows what went wrong
Snakes in the grass got to step on the gas
With a little girl in my arms
I'm holding on to you
Snakes in the grass got to step on the gas
Snakes in the grass got to step on the gas
You're shining I can see you
And there is nothing so cruel
And you're shining I can see you
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough
As a little girl I came down
You're shining I can see you
You're smiling that's enough
