[Verse 1]
Walk with me the diamond road
Tell me every story told
Give me something of your soul
That I can hold onto
I wanna wake up to the sound of waves
Crashing on a brand new day
Keep the memory of your face
But wipe the pain away

[Chorus]
When you're lonely (you're not alone)
When your heart aches (on Diamond Road)
It's gonna take a little time
Yeah, it's gonna take a little time
When the night falls (you're not alone)
When you're stumbling (on Diamond Road)
It's gonna take a little time
To make it to the other side
So don't miss the diamonds along the way
'Cause every road has led us here today

[Verse 2]
Little bird, what's troubling you?
You know what you have to do
What is yours you'll never lose
And what's ahead may shine
Beneath the promise of blue skies
With broken wings we'll learn to fly
Pull yourself out of the tide
And begin the dream again

[Chorus]
When you're lonely (you're not alone)
When your heart aches (on Diamond Road)
It's gonna take a little time
To make it to the other side
When the night falls (you're not alone)
When you're stumbling (on Diamond Road)
It's gonna take a little time
To make it to the other side
So don't miss the diamonds along the way
Every road has led us here today

[Bridge]
Won't you shine on
Morning light
Burn the darkness away, oh

[Verse 3]
Walk with me the Diamond Road
Tell me everything is gold
Give me something of your soul
So you don't fade away, oh

[Chorus]
When you're lonely (you're not alone)
When your heart aches (on Diamond Road)
It's gonna take a little time
To make it to the other side
When the night falls (you're not alone)
When you're stumbling (on Diamond Road)
It's gonna take a little time
To make it to the other side

When you're lonely (you're not alone)
When your heart aches (on Diamond Road)
It's gonna take a little time
To make it to the other side
When the night falls (you're not alone)
When you're stumbling (on Diamond Road)
It's gonna take a little time
But everything will be just fine

[Outro]
So don't miss the diamonds along the way
Every road has led us here today
Life is what happens while you're making plans
And all that you need is right here in your hands
