Diamonds to dust, oh, diamonds to dust
Time can't turn even, diamonds to dust
Diamonds to dust, oh, diamonds to dust
Time can't turn even, diamonds to dust
Love is a question that few understand
It runs like a river between a woman and man
But its course can get twisted and its bed can run dry
And our hearts become deserts in the wink of an eye
Once there was love here and once there was trust
Once there was love here and once there was trust

Once it was honest and open and just
Our love was a diamond that grew between us
But time can turn evil and diamonds to dust
Diamonds to dust, oh diamonds to dust
Time can turn evil and diamonds to dust
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Time is a teacher, it's kind and it's cruel
But its course can get twisted and its bed can run dry
And our hearts become deserts in the wink of an eye


It gives you the wisdom to see your repute
And it gives love and takes love
It hurts and it heals
And it never parts easy with the truth it reveals
Diamonds to dust, oh diamonds to dust
Time can turn evil and diamonds to dust
Diamonds to dust, oh diamonds to dust
Diamonds to dust, oh, diamonds to dust
Time can journey from diamonds to dust
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
