Passenger, Birkfinger - Diamonds lyrics
[Passenger, Birkfinger - Diamonds lyrics]
Well I spoke to this man
Said he’d been to the moon
Carved his name in the ground
Saw the world spinning round
And came back that afternoon
And I laughed at this man
Said he’d been lost at sea
Heard the sirens call seen the pirates fall
To the monsters in the deep
I said I’d heard some tall tales
Some good stories in my time
So I asked him for proof
He just showed me the truth
That was dancing in his eyes
I could not believe this man
Said he was a millionaire
He said I know I dress in rags
But, I drive a vintage Jag
And I’ve got a diamond chandelier
I said I think I need a drink
And made my way outside
You know I’d swear this was a spoof
If it wasn’t for the truth
That was dancing in his eyes
When I came back in the room
The man had disappeared
He left a rock from the moon
And eyepatch and a diamond from a chandelier
Said he’d been to the moon
Carved his name in the ground
Saw the world spinning round
And came back that afternoon
And I laughed at this man
Said he’d been lost at sea
Heard the sirens call seen the pirates fall
To the monsters in the deep
I said I’d heard some tall tales
Some good stories in my time
So I asked him for proof
He just showed me the truth
That was dancing in his eyes
I could not believe this man
Said he was a millionaire
He said I know I dress in rags
But, I drive a vintage Jag
And I’ve got a diamond chandelier
I said I think I need a drink
And made my way outside
You know I’d swear this was a spoof
If it wasn’t for the truth
That was dancing in his eyes
When I came back in the room
The man had disappeared
He left a rock from the moon
And eyepatch and a diamond from a chandelier
