Diamond in the dark

i left la today
i'm on another plane
i spent too much time on the dark side of your door
i spent the night awake
had all that i could take
i might not see those baby blue eyes anymore

come on
i'm shining like a diamond in the dark
i'm floating like a lion in the ark
i'm walking round in circles through the park
and no tough talk will erase you
now i know how many holes it takes, too
and i really don't know how to shake these memories

there's a fire in the sky
and baby there's red dawn in my eyes
and all the meanings got so twisted since you've gone
and i guess i'll hope you fine
but really you know i hope you're crying
and there's a million things to say since you been gone

come on
i'm shining like a diamond in the dark
i'm floating like a lion in the ark
i'm walking round in circles through the park
and no tough talk will erase you
now i know how many holes it takes, too
and i really don't know how to shake these memories

desperate eyes
don't recognise the warning signs
alibis
they won't keep you warm at night

come on
i'm shining like a diamond in the dark
i'm floating like a lion in the ark
i'm walking round in circles through the park
and no tough talk will erase you
now i know how many holes it takes, too
and i really don't know how to shake these memories
now i know how many holes it takes, too
and i really don't know how to shake these memories
