Made a stop at a lonely shop
Near Littlerock, California
In the middle of nowhere, a discovery so rare
It was warm, right before a storm
The day that I first saw you
They say you know it when you find it
Then there's nothing you can do
And when I think about it
Can't help but think about it
How our whispers sounded
With nothing but our arms around us
Nothing else can compare to a beauty like you
Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert
Only us, scent of rain on dust
Our shadows there in the corner
Don't believe there was a word said
When you led me to your bed
We made love all day long
You knew tomorrow I'd be gone
Tasted each other to save the moment
And when I think about it
Can't help but think about it
How our whispers sounded
With nothing but our arms around us
Nothing else can compare to a beauty like you
Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert
Was it just one of my dreams
Not sure of what it all means
Our bodies in the between
I wonder if you still think
If only, only, only
You'd hold me, hold me, hold me
Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert
Rivers made of sand
Flowing through my hands
Everything will change
But your beauty will remain
Hold my memories close
Paint them all in gold
'Cause diamonds are forever
No one else is like you
Nothing else can compare to a beauty like you
Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert
And when I think about it
Can't help but think about it
How our whispers sounded
With nothing but our arms around us
Nothing else can compare to a beauty like you
Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert
Was it just one of my dreams
Not sure of what it all means
Our bodies in the between
I wonder if you still think
If only, only, only
You'd hold me, hold me, hold me
Baby, you, you're a diamond in the desert
