Diamond Days
None of us start out looking like a jewel
We're all rough around the edges, unfinished, a little jagged too
We're not ready for the ring, not cut out for crowns
C buried treasure waiting to be found
But it takes patience, and pressure and feeling lost in the dark
In the hard work and the hard times, we find out who we are
Something beautiful is taking shape
Can't hurry through these making-a-diamond days
In the moment, the slow passing, the long and lonely nights
We don't notice all the changes
The hammer, the chisel, the struggle bring to life
But somewhere underneath the weight of earth and time
The stone that is a heart begins to shine
But it takes patience, and pressure and feeling lost in the dark
In the hard work and the hard times, we find out who we are
Something beautiful is taking shape
Can't hurry through these making-a-diamond days
We're all meant to catch the light
We're all meant to catch the light
We're all meant to catch the light
Catch the light
But it takes patience, and pressure and feeling lost in the dark
In the hard work and the hard times, we find out who we are
Something beautiful taking shape
Can't hurry through these making-a-diamond days
