Diamonds by Mercury Rev Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Look how the sun captured by the rain
Glimmers and falls and lands in golden balls
Like a bracelet hung from a spider's web
For me to show to you like gifts

[Chorus]
That you won't forget
For as long as you live

[Verse 2]
See how the rain captured by the leaves
Shimmers and falls and lives on in diamond balls
Like a necklace hung over limb and branch
For me to show to you like gifts

[Chorus]
That you won't forget
For as long as you live

[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 3]
Watch how the stars captured by the sky
Appear to die before our eyes and live on in other ways
Well, tonight they're mine for me to show
For me to shower you like gifts

[Chorus]
That you won't forget
For as long as you live
And you will always have
For I will always give them
To you
To you

[Instrumental Outro]
