You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold You say you want your story to remain untold. All the promises we make From the cradle to the grave When all I want is you. You say you'll give me a highway with no-one on it Treasure, just to look upon it All the riches in the night. You say you'll give me eyes in the moon of blindness A river in a time of dryness A harbour in the tempest. All the promises we make, from the cradle to the grave When all I need is you. You say you want your love to work out right To last with me through the night. You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold Your story to remain untold Your love not to grow cold. All the promises we break, from the cradle to the grave When all I want is you.
