STRAWBS
"Cut Like A Diamond"
(Cousins-Cronk)

I was born in the calm before the storm
In the quiet hour of dawn
With the full moon in my eyes.

I was kissed by the rolling river mist
That betrayed the lovers' tryst
A mysterious disguise.

Cut like a diamond, sharper than steel
Sweet as the razor's edge before the jagged wheel.

I am lost, I have sold my heart at cost
On the bridges that we crossed
I have carved my name in stone.

Bitter wife, you have cut me like a knife
I could never take a life
That could never take its own.

Cut like a diamond, sharper than steel
Sweet as the razor's edge before the jagged wheel.

Cut like a diamond, sharper than steel
Sweet as the razor's edge before the jagged wheel.

I was born in the calm before the storm
In the quiet hour of dawn
With the full moon in my eyes.

I will die with the sun high in the sky
With the river rolling by
Far below the bridge of sighs.

Cut like a diamond, sharper than steel
Sweet as the razor's edge before the jagged wheel.

Cut like a diamond, sharper than steel
Sweet as the razor's edge before the jagged wheel.

Cut like a diamond, sharper than steel
Sweet as the razor's edge before the jagged wheel.
