Kansas Diamonds And Pearls Lyrics

Diamonds And Pearls Lyrics

The stage is set, the race is on

To drink the cup 'til every drop is
gone

And when you make it to the top

The hunger doesn't stop

You
climb the ladder to success

The way the world defines it more or
less

You find the grass is greener still

On someone else's
hill



(Chorus)

Diamonds and pearls

Silver and gold

Soon
fade away

Empty and cold

Nothing remains of the things that we strive
to attain

Only the love that is lasting will not be in vain



They
say that pride's before the fall

The stakes are high, you know who takes it
all

To make it through the needle's eye

You just can't live a
lie



(Chorus)

(Instrumental)

(Chorus)
