As a little girl I came down to the water

With a little stone in my hand

And it would shimmer and sing

And I knew everything

As a little girl I came down

In a little while I got steeped in authority

Heaven only knows what went wrong

When there was nothing so cruel

Than to bury that jewel

When it was mine all along

And I'm gonna find it

You're shining I can see you

You're smiling that's enough well

I'm holding onto you like a diamond in the rough

Like a diamond in the rough

Every now and then I can see

That I am 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 and now I'm gonna find it

You're shining I can see you

You're smiling that's enough well

I'm holding onto you like a diamond in the rough

Like a diamond in the rough

Snakes in the grass

Better step on the gas

Snakes in the grass

Better step on the gas

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 I go down

You're shining I can see you

You're smiling that's enough well

I'm holding onto you like a diamond in the rough

Like a diamond in the rough
