Diamonds to Dust Oh, Diamonds to Dust Time can turn even Diamonds to Dust Love is a question That few understand It runs like a river Between a woman and man But its course can get twisted And its bed can run dry And our hearts become deserts In the wink of an eye Once there was love here And once there was trust Once it was honest And open and just Our love was a diamond That grew between us But time can turn even Diamonds to Dust [Chorus:] Diamonds to Dust Oh, Diamonds to Dust Time can turn even Diamonds to Dust Time is a teacher It’s kind and it’s cruel It gives you the wisdom To see you’re a fool And it gives love and takes love It hurts and it heals And it never parts easy With the truth it reveals [Chorus]
