Diamonds

Little sister don't you cry
Lay your head down, close your eyes
Your heart is aching, mine is aching for you

Little sister don't you cry
Lay your head down close your eyes
and dream of when before your man looked at you
diamonds always shine

you'll find true love again
the mud gets washed off with the rain
diamonds always shine

little sister look at me
do you see the lines around my eyes?
they trace the tracks of the tears, i cried inside
for a boy who loved me true
who found some how like you
he could not see the point in going on
diamonds always shine

you'll find true love again
the mud gets washed off with the rain
diamonds always shine
diamonds always shine
