Diamonds Songtext
von Passenger

Well I spoke to this man
Said he′d been to the moon.
Carved his name in the ground
Saw the world spinning round,
And came back that afternoon.

And I laughed at this man
Said he'd been lost at sea.
Heard the sirens call
Seen the pirates fall
To the monsters in the deep.

I said I′d heard some tall tales,
Some good stories in my time.
So I asked him for proof,
And he just showed me the truth
That was dancing in his eyes.


Well I could not believe this man,
Said he was a millionaire.
He said I know I dress in rags,
But I drive a vintage Jag
And I've got a diamond chandelier.

I said I think I need a drink,
And made my way outside.
You know I'd swear this was a spoof
If it wasn′t for the truth
That was dancing in his eyes.

Oh no no no no

When I came back in the room
The man had disappeared.
He left a rock from the moon,
An eyepatch, and a diamond
From a chandelier.
