Various Artists Diamond in the Rough lyrics

As a little girl I came down to the water
With a little stone in my hand
And it would shimmer and sing
And I knew everything
As a little girl I came down

In a little while I got steeped in authority
Heaven only knows what went wrong
When there was nothing so cruel
Than to bury that jewel
When it was mine all along

I'm gonna find it
You're shinin', I can see you
You're smilin' that's enough well
Oh I'm holding onto you
Like a diamond in the rough

Every now and then I can see
That I am getting somewhere
Where I have to go is so deep
I was angry back then, and you know I still am yeah
I have lost too much sleep

And now I'm gonna find it

You're shinin', I can see you
You're smilin', that's enough well
I'm holding onto you, like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough

In my dreams I go down to the water
With a little girl in my arms
And we shimmer and sing
And we know everything
In my dreams I go down

You're shinin', I can see you
You're smilin', that's enough well
I'm holding onto you
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough

You're shinin', I can see you
You're smilin', that's enough well
I'm holding onto you, holding onto you
Like a diamond in the rough, like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough, like a diamond in the rough
