Liquid Diamonds lyrics

Surrender then start your engines

You'll know quite soon what my mistake was

For those on horse back or dog sled

You turn at the bend in the road

I hear she still grants forgiveness

Although I willingly forgot her

The offering is molasses

And you say

I guess I'm an underwater thing

So I guess you can't take it personally

I guess I'm an underwater thing

I'm liquid running

There's a sea secret in me

It's plain to see, it is rising

But I must be flowing liquid diamonds

Liquid diamonds

Calling for my soul

At the corners of the world

I know she's playing poker

With the rest of the stragglers

Calling for my soul

At the corners of the world

I know she's playing poker

With the rest, the rest

And if your friends don't come back to you

And you know this is madness

A lilac mess in your prom dress

And you say

I guess I'm an underwater thing

So I guess I can't take it personally

I guess I'm an underwater thing

I'm liquid running

There's a sea secret in me

It's plain to see, it is rising

But I must be flowing liquid diamonds

Liquid diamonds

I go inside a shell, I see its soul

And you're doing oh so well these days

You do it again

And I say it's coming back again

Something like that

This Saturday, such was it

Can he bring me those jeans?

Keep it back, daddy's down

Preaching back and to himself

Keep it just between us

It's liquid

Liquid

Liquid
