Diamonds and Pearls Songtext
von Prince and The New Power Generation

This will be the day
That you will hear me say
That I will never run away
I am here for you
Love is meant for two
Now tell me what you′re gonna do

If I gave you diamonds and pearls
Would you be a happy boy or a girl?
If I could, I would give you the world
But all I can do is just offer you my love

Which one of us is right
If we always fight
Why can't we just let love decide?
(Let love decide)
Am I the weaker man
Because I understand
That love must be the master plan
(Love is the master plan)


If I gave you diamonds and pearls
Would you be a happy boy or a girl?
If I could, I would give you the world
But all I can do is just offer you my love

D to the I to the A to the M
O to the N to the D to the pearls of love
D to the I to the A to the M
(To the M)
O to the N to the D to the pearls of love

There will come a time
(There will come a time)
When love will blow your mind
(Blow your mind)
And everything you′ll look for you'll find
(Take a look inside girl)
That will be the time
(That will be the time)
That everything will shine
(Forever)
So bright it makes you colorblind
(You will be color blind)


If I gave you diamonds and pearls
Would you be a happy boy or a girl?
If I could, I would give you the world
All I can do is just offer you my love
If I gave you diamonds and pearls
(Pearls)
Would you be a happy boy or a girl?
(Yeah yeah)
If I could, I would give you the world
(Give you the world)
All I can do is just offer you my love
(All I can do)

If I gave you diamonds and pearls
(Diamonds)
Would you be, would you, would you?
(Would ya, would ya, would ya be happy little baby?)
A happy boy or a girl
If I could, I would give you the world
