Illy - Diamonds Lyrics

Let's run away together
Escape from the parades
It's better late than never
To be on our way
Don't need a map
Just follow the track, track
Don't need a map
Just follow the track, track, track

Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh

And she said, ""I'm leaving, I'ma take flight
When I've gone I won't ever come back, and I know it's
Not fair, you can come or stay there
It's on you, but I couldn't take that, well I couldn't take that
Turned down any offer of a map
Said she'd find her own way, heading off familiar tracks
We caught between war and the opposite of that
But that's what you expect when two opposites attract
Me and her walking two straight lines, my equal
Lead me to the answer, she more than a sign
Sparkle in the limelight, its more than the shine
And it ours, not hers, not mine, we'll be fine, but still
She'd lay you down, heart bleeding through the mattress
Offer you the world and not leave you with an atlas
Soft words, fast actions, she catches
She held out her hand, without ever looking backwards
Said

Let's run away together
Escape from the parades
It's better late than never
To be on our way
Don't need a map
Just follow the track, track
Don't need a map
Just follow the track, track, track

Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh

Yeah
And what a tangled web we weave, said she couldn't breathe
Knocked off her feet but she'd never retreat, and me
Although the first cut's deep, its a release
And I'm too lost to try and stop the bleed, I could never let it be
Can't decide if I'm everything you need
Or if I need to be your everything for me and my reasons
Guardian angels fighting inner demons
And clarity of thoughts impeded, still I'm
In the trenches for her, ride to the ends of the Earth
Lost in the sunset, done spent what it's worth
But here we are, hand in hand
For better or worse off, my jewel, vice versa
As much beauty as danger when you talk about trust
And it's a trip, too good to pass up
Shit, soft touch, hard love
She closed her eyes she let herself go, felt the rush
And she said

Let's run away together
Escape from the parades
It's better late than never
To be on our way
Don't need a map
Just follow the track, track
Don't need a map
Just follow the track, track, track

Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
Diamond cuts a diamond
Cuts a diamond, cuts a diamond, oh
