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 'Cause 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 What 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 'Cause 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 'Cause 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 'Cause 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
