Made a stop at a lonely shop Near Littlerock, California In the middle of nowhere, a discovery so rare It was warm, right before a storm The day that I first saw you They say you know it when you find it Then there's nothing you can do And when I think about it Can't help but think about it How our whispers sounded With nothing but our arms around us Nothing else can compare to a beauty like you Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert Only us, scent of rain on dust Our shadows there in the corner Don't believe there was a word said When you led me to your bed We made love all day long You knew tomorrow I'd be gone Tasted each other to save the moment And when I think about it Can't help but think about it How our whispers sounded With nothing but our arms around us Nothing else can compare to a beauty like you Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert Was it just one of my dreams Not sure of what it all means Our bodies in the between I wonder if you still think If only, only, only You'd hold me, hold me, hold me Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert Rivers made of sand Flowing through my hands Everything will change But your beauty will remain Hold my memories close Paint them all in gold 'Cause diamonds are forever No one else is like you Nothing else can compare to a beauty like you Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert And when I think about it Can't help but think about it How our whispers sounded With nothing but our arms around us Nothing else can compare to a beauty like you Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert Was it just one of my dreams Not sure of what it all means Our bodies in the between I wonder if you still think If only, only, only You'd hold me, hold me, hold me Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert
