Shawn Colvin lyrics : "Diamond In The Rough"

As a little girl I came down to the water
With a little stone in my hand
It would shimmer and sing

And we knew everything
As a little girl I came down


But in a little while I got steeped in authority
Heaven only knows what went wrong
And there is nothing so cruel

Than to bury that jewel
It was mine all along
I'm gonna find it


You're shining I can see you
You're smiling that's enough

I'm holding on to you
Like a diamond in the rough


Every now and then I can see
That I'm getting somewhere
Where I have to go is so deep

I was angry back then
And you know I still am
I have lost too much sleep

But I'm gonna find it

You're shining I can see you

You're smiling that's enough
I'm holding on to you
Like a diamond in the rough

Like a diamond in the rough

Snakes in the grass got to step on the gas

Snakes in the grass got to step on the gas

In my dreams I go down by the water

With a little girl in my arms
And we shimmer and sing
And we know everything, everything

In my dreams I go down, I go down

You're shining I can see you

You're smiling that's enough
And I'm holding on to you
Like a diamond in the rough

Like a diamond in the rough

And you're shining I can see you

You're smiling that's enough
I am holding on to 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


Snakes in the grass got to step on the gas
Snakes in the grass got to step on the gas

Snakes in the grass got to step on the gas
