Moses

diamonds...

Roses

I need...moses

To cross this sea of loneliness

Part this red river of pain

Ha! i don't neccessarily buy

Any key to the future or happiness

But i need a little place in the sun sometimes

Or i think i'll die

Everywhere is somewhere

And nowhere is near

Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer

But i'm a tragic figure in the corner over here

With an empty apartment

And a best friend who is...queer

Everytime i see him, he smiles

And tells me how well he's walking these miles

But he never ever asks a single thing about me

If i died, he'd hear about it eventually

Diamonds...

Roses...

I need...moses

To cross this sea of loneliness

Part this red river of pain

Cause everywhere is somewhere

And nowhere is near

Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer

But i'm just a tragic figure in the corner over here

With some bills and in the mailbox

And some checks that won't clear...

This year...

Do...do do

Do...do do

Do...do do

Do...do do

Cause everywhere is somewhere and nowhere is near

Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer

But i'm just a tragic figure in the corner over here

Who'll sleep it off 'til morning and still not know that we're...

We're all just diamonds

And roses

I need...moses

To cross this sea of loneliness

Part this red river of pain

To cross this sea of loneliness

Part this red river of....pain
