(Verse 1) I Woke to the sound of rain Watched as the rain came down My treasure chest lays open and bare It's secrets all spilled on the floor There's nothing to see Just the withered wishes of a younger me (Pre-Chorus) Mom said, “Look up, not down,” I searched every corner Looked into every cracked stone Hoping to find what’s truly mine. She said, "One day you will find it", I am hunting for diamonds in the rain I am hunting for diamonds in the snow (Chorus) I am hunting for diamonds, In the wrong places, Through every lost moment I’m tracing my past Searching dusty corners All I find are the spirits of those who have passed I look to the skies, Hoping for the rain hoping for diamonds to fall (Verse 2) I remember the park where I used to play digging for gold in the sand all day The Devil said," Not today, time to leave." I laughed at him till it hurt, the Devil smiled and whispered to me "There are no diamonds here" Ooooh ohhhh Little did I know I was seeking something For something that was never near For something that wasn't there Searching for diamonds that are not here (Pre-Chorus) Every old map, every whispered clue, Led me to corners where I never knew. But I carried on to lighting the night Believing in magic, making my stand. Holding tight to what was dear to me And a whisper I heard “Look up, not down,” (Chorus) I am hunting for diamonds, In the wrong places, Through every lost moment, I’m tracing my past Searching dusty cobweb corners All I find are the spirits of those who have passed I look at the skies, Hoping for the rain hoping for diamonds to fall [Piano Interlude bold] (Bridge) Flickering flames late at night Wondering why I pushed so hard. Searching in the dark, and all the while I hunted for diamonds (Chorus) Hunting for diamonds, In the wrong places, All I find are the spirits of those who have passed Hunting diamonds day and night The danger lays in what one may find secrets buried in closets with a skeleton crew I just look at the skies, Hoping for the rain Hoping that the rain turns to diamonds (Outro) I am hunting diamonds I'll keep looking With a pick and a shovel I look for the shine hunting for diamonds, In the wrong places I’ll find my diamonds, In all the right places. (Chorus) Hunting for diamonds, In the wrong places, All I find are the spirits of those who have passed Hunting diamonds day and night The danger lays in what one may find secrets buried in closets with a skeleton crew I just look at the skies, Hoping for the rain Hoping that the rain turns to diamonds (Outro) I am hunting diamonds I'll keep looking With a pick and a shovel I look for the shine hunting for diamonds, In the wrong places I’ll find my diamonds, In all the right places.
