Diamonds and Pearls

歌詞

The stage is set, the race is on To drink the cup 'til every drop is gone And when you make it to the top The hunger doesn't stop You climb the ladder to success The way the world defines it more or less You find the grass is greener still On someone else's hill Diamonds and pearls Silver and gold Soon fade away Empty and cold Nothing remains of the things that we strive to attain Only the love that is lasting will not be in vain They say that pride's before the fall The stakes are high, you know who takes it all To make it through the needle's eye You just can't live a lie Diamonds and pearls Silver and gold Soon fade away Empty and cold Nothing remains of the things that we strive to attain Only the love that is lasting will not be in vain Diamonds and pearls Silver and gold Soon fade away Empty and cold Nothing remains of the things that we strive to attain Only the love that is lasting will not be in vain
