“And she says, oh I can't take no more Her tears like diamonds on the floor And her diamonds bring me down 'Cause I can't help her now She's down in it She tried her best and now she can't win It's hard to see them on the ground Her diamonds falling down Way down Well she sits down and stares into the distance And it takes all night And I know I could break her concentration But it don't feel right By the light of the moon She rubs her eyes Sits down on the bed and starts to cry And there's something less about her And I don't know what I'm supposed to do So I sit down and I cry too But don't let her see”
