Your beauty shines like a diamond
But few people know your true worth
Your courage is often called folly
But it has once saved the Earth
To love you seems logical
And each day my feelings grow
But after how I once hurt you
I wonder if you even know
I have covered your body with kisses
I have bared my soul to you
But there is still doubt in your heart
You fear that my love is not true
A gift cannot prove my feelings
Of the past it cannot change a thing
But I want to spoil you with diamonds
To make you feel like a king
Your gorgeous body deserves
To be seen in the most precious frame
And the jewel's shine would reflect
My devotion my love and my claim
I would gladly pay a fortune
To honor you and atone
But I do not wish you embarrassed
Because of a simple stone
Diamonds are wanted and priceless
And as long as planets they last
But despite their brilliance and beauty
They are nothing but specks of dust
Our hunger for beauty is endless
But dead stones this desire can't meet
The flesh may be perishable
But death makes the brief joining so sweet
You don't need diamonds my love
Your warmth outshines their cold art
And the stars themselves are shamed
By the pure radiance of your heart
