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 There is nothing so cruel than to bury that jewel When 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
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 In my dreams I go down
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
