Diamond in the Rough

[Intro]
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the gas
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the gas
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the
Step on the, step on the, step on the, step on the

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
But in a little while I got steeped in authority
Heaven only knows what went wrong
Ah, there's nothing so cruel
Than to bury that jеwel
When it was mine all along
And I'm gonna find it

[Chorus]
You'rе shining—I can see you
You're smiling—that's enough
Oh, I'm holding on to you
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond

[Verse 3]
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
Well, I have lost too much sleep
But I'm gonna find it

[Chorus]
You're shining—I can see you
You're smiling—that's enough
And I am holding on to you
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough

[Interlude]
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the gas
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the gas
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the gas
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the, step on the, step on the, step on the

[Verse 4]
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, everything
In my dreams I go down
I go down, I go down, I go down

[Chorus]
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
And you're shining—I can see you
You're smiling—that's enough
And I'm holding on to you
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough

[Outro]
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the gas
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the gas
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the gas
Snakes in the grass
Gotta step on the, step on the, step on the, step on the
Like a diamond
