Some days are cold and hard, a stone around your neck Others steal the life from you and leave you feeling flat Just when you think you've taken your last breath Your Father blows a kiss at you and lifts you up again And these diamond days arrive just in time An oasis in the desert to refresh the mind Oh, these diamond days, they shine like the stars So perfectly placed when the journey is hard Sometimes we're buried by a landslide of extremes We are hard-pressed on every side, it seems But somewhere between the madness and mundane Your Father sends a gift that lifts you up again And these diamond days arrive just in time An oasis in the desert to refresh the mind Oh, these diamond days, they shine like the stars Perfectly placed for when the journey is hard Just when you think you've taken your last breath Your Father blows a kiss at you and lifts you up again And these diamond days arrive just in time An oasis in the desert to refresh the mind Oh, these diamond days, they shine like the stars So perfectly placed for when the journey is , the journey is hard
