"Diamonds" lyrics

"Diamonds"

Party started
You're standing in a crowd and
I hear this song in my head
It's playing over and over
And waiting out back
My heart's about to attack
I see you out of the black
Getting louder and louder

You know what I'm thinking but I won't confess
No one is speaking but I know your secret
Racing to nowhere bare feet in grass
Summer was watching, it's going by so fast

Wide awake, the whole world is sleeping
Night is young so why waste the wine
You and I can stay here for always
Gold on your skin and diamonds in your eyes

In the pocket
Your father's dinner jacket
You stole the keys to the car
And we started running
The wind at our back
Our hearts about to attack
We're driving into the black
Faster and faster

We bottled the lightning, the fourth of July
Spent the night under the kaleidoscope sky
Nights I spent watching you pirouette
The summer was singing the day that we met

We were wide awake, the whole world is sleeping
The night is young, the air was alive
You and I could stay here for always
Gold on your skin and diamonds in your eyes

Fireworks fade
They fall like rain
Gone without a trace
But still I hear the sound
Let the music play
It's taking me away
Still I see your face
Diamonds in your eyes
