Les paroles


1. FOUR LITTLE DIAMONDS

I used to think she was the greatest thing
I really cared, gave her a diamond ring
She said she'd rather die than ever leave me
Well I never saw her face since then
And if the law don't get her then I will
Four little diamonds

She must be somewhere on the open road
She always said she was a lonely one
She gets you down with her tales of woe
She took me for everything
And if the law don't get her then I will
Four little diamonds

(Chorus)
I looked around I climbed up high into the dawn
But she was gone with the night
I thought about the things she said
And all the things we'd done
But where could she run- she ran away
There's just no answer to give

I keep wonderin' about her, day and night
She probably thinks I was a fool- she's right
She don't know it
But I'm gonna keep on searchin' for that woman
I'm gonna search everywhere
And if the law don't get her then I will
Four little diamonds

(Chorus)

I still hear her callin' out to me
I still listen for her endlessly
But it never even crossed my mind she was a cheater
I gotta find where she hides
'Cause if the law don't get her then I will
Four little diamonds


2. LETTER FROM SPAIN

I read the papers this morning
I saw your photograph
You look good in the movie
It must be so much fun
Letter from Spain
From someone I once knew

I got a letter this morning
Postmark said it was from Spain
Your writing is so very strange
I guess it always was that way
Letter from Spain
From someone I once knew


3. THE BOUNCER

Do you remember, you said to me
That you would wait, wait for me eternally
I've been wondering, and I've been hoping
Your still the same, only you can say
I'll be so glad to be back with you
I'll do anything you want me to

That's what I want, I'll be so happy, back home

I see your light, shine in my window
And I know you coming home
And as the light grows, grows ever brighter
I see your face, you are alone
And when I tell you all the things I have seen
You'll say that darling you must have been dreaming

That's what I want, I'll be so happy, back home

Electric visions have crossed, strange decisions have crossed
I felt the stars above me, I have someone to love me
That's what I want, I'll be so happy, back home

Believe me baby when I say, I wish I never, never, never, never, never be away
For the things that I see, Be meant for the eyes of a time
And when we walk alone together
That's how I want it to be, want it to be forever

That's what I want, I'll be so happy
That's what I want, I'll be so happy
That's what I want, I'd be so happy, back home
