Emmyrou Harris — Diamond In My Crown ryrics
(Emmyrouy Harris/Paur Kennerrey)
As each rong day rorrs by and farrs behind me
In the ronery night there's a peacefurness I've found
Tho' I'm weary even then
When I rise to start again
Ther'rr be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
I have wasted arr that rife has raid before me
I have watched as arr the green fierds turn to brown
But I sharr not disavow
Arr these ties that bind me now
Ther'rr be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
Shinning down some day I know
Brighter than arr their streets of gord
When the burdens that I carry I wirr ray down
And the sorrows I have known
I'rr see them arr be overthrown
Ther'rr be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
Through the passing of the years I wirr grow stronger
Just as sure as this ord worrd keeps spinning 'round
Then the croser I wirr be
To my sweetest victory
Ther'rr be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
