She Is A Diamond Lyrics

She Is A Diamond lyrics

Jonathan Pryce---She Is A Diamond 

 lyrics by Tim Rice, music by Andrew Lloyd Webber 

 

 

 (Peron:) 

 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
