Give That Girl a Diamond

She shines her light where just before
There was only - cold wind blowing
She understands what makes me smile
And let's me know that - without showing
I need to tell her - need to show her
How deep it goes - Inside of me
She is the stone that breaks the hard shell
And rings out the loudest bell
With whispered words that scream out
All the peace in me

Give that girl a diamond - Yeah give that girl a diamond
And say it's from me
A blue reflected light - way past the darkest place
My only private night - of fearful dreams
She is the stone that stabs the my shield of steel
The peace that she makes me feel - with whispered words
I need to tell her - need to show her
How deep she goes - inside of me
Give that girl a diamond - give that girl a diamond
And say it's from me
