She Is A Diamond Lyrics

PERON (to OFFICERS)

 But on the other hand--she's all they have

 She's a diamond in their dull gray lives--and that's the

 Hardest kind of stone--it usually survives

 And when you think about it, can you recall

 The last time they loved anyone at all?

 

 She's not a bauble you can brush aside

 She's been out doing what we just talked about--example

 Gave us back our businesses, got the English out

 And when you think about it--well why not do

 One or two of the things we promised to?

 

 But on the other hand she's slowing down

 She's lost a little of that magic drive--but I would

 Not advise those critics present to derive

 Any satisfaction from her fading star

 She's the one who's kept us where we are

 

 OFFICERS

 She's the one who's kept you where you are.
