Lapis Lazuli (Diamonds Are Forever) Lyrics

On my life you bring light

A flame that's gonna ignite tonight

A fire deep in my soul

Brought upon by the darkest coal

I have some pain to hide

Even though I tried inside I died

I cry myself to sleep

But I promise it's not that deep

Diamonds are forever

But my heart has been painted

The colours of a midnight sky

We're only getting older

But things get complicated

I try but now I need to die

Dove of peace carries love

Across the ocean, the land and sea

But he flies up above

Not drowning in my reality

Once he reaches journey's end

I'll be singing in the woodland

"Bridges burned meant to mend

The coolest star, she just needs a hand"

Diamonds are forever

But my heart has been painted

The colours of a wild wildfire

We're only getting older

But things get complicated

I try but now there's no desire

The last one standing now

Is the blossoming cherry blossom

They are all gone somehow

Forgotten they'll be back by autumn

Heart on my sleeve, I wish

But not all secrets should be spoken

I promise, I'm no snitch

She should be worried you're the chosen

Here we are at sunrise

Staring deeply at the rising sun

The shine enters our eyes

For one moment I don't need to run

I dance alone carrying

The weight of the world won't make a sound

Sometimes I need a king

Bound to this life on the battleground

Diamonds are forever

But my heart has been painted

The colours of a wildflower

We're only getting older

But things get complicated

I try but I've got no power

Diamonds are forever

But my heart has been painted

The colours of our memories

We're only getting older

But things get complicated

When I choose to live for centuries
