In these days of manmade wonders we still bicker over flies
When you come seeking for forgiveness, I´ll be forced to choose my side

If I deny you what you´re searching, do I do it out of fear
Am I ruling out my reason, killing that which I hold dear

Out of my way I´m running, with an excuse just underway
Reality´s so daunting, and I´ve got no way to explain

Cos when you´re sleeping right next to me, I know you´re the one
So when I hear you calling my name, why do I turn away to run
I guess that´s why it´s raining diamonds, sweet happiness in tears
Crying heaven shed your diamonds, diamonds for tears

In the light of recent findings, there´s no greater taint than grace
But to relinquish all our bindings, always finds us out of place

If I rested here a while more, would you hold me to your heart
If I knew what it was meant for, will I know to play my part

Out of my way I´m leaving, another excuse before I´ll stay
Reality´s applauding, I know I don´t know the right way

Cos when you´re sleeping right next to me, I know you´re the one
So when I hear you calling my name, Yeah, I know you´re the one
I guess that´s why it´s raining diamonds, sweet happiness in tears
Crying heaven shed your diamonds, diamonds for tears

Is it a lost cause,
Can we overlook this taint
Are these the dead laws
Like a doubt eating the saint

And though I fear these shackles, like my darkness closing in
I will hold out my hands, I will hold out my hands

Cos when you´re sleeping right next to me, I know you´re the one
So when I hear you calling my name, I´ll know the good I´ve done
I guess that´s why it´s raining diamonds, sweet happiness in tears
Crying heaven shed your diamonds, diamonds for tears
