(Matraca Berg Gary Harrison) Spent my life looking for Happiness like it was buried treasure Somewhere behind the secret door Surely there were riches beyond measure I would take my sanity to task Walk across broken glass to find it And no mountain top was left unclimbed Before I ever took the time to take a look inside me These dreams of mine these precious years Oh how they shine like diamonds and tears Oh sure, there was love And of course I thought it'd be my salvation And in a way, I guess he was There's always room for higher education Yes, I have said and heard the word goodbye Felt the blade and turned the knife sideways I'd crossed bridges while they'd burn To keep from losing what I've learned along the way These dreams of mine these precious years Oh how they shine like diamonds and tears These dreams of mine these precious years Oh how they shine like diamonds and tears The slow grace of time, the joy and the fears Oh how they shine like diamonds and tears |
