Cole Scheifele - Dark As Diamonds Lyrics

You were crystal in the highlands
Buried deep in silence
So I went in search of all of that Diamond
In hopes to see you shining
I saw you all bright but your beauty was dark as coal

I searched through all the words, I could find
The only word I found was time
I packed it in my bag and gave it to you
Well it didn't cost much but I couldn't buy it back from you

I tried to brush beneath the grime in
Hopes that you were hiding
Then time sent the sun around the sky
At least a hundred nights and
Your beauty bright was worth nothing more than showed

I searched through all the words, I could find
The only word I found was time
I packed it in my bag and gave it to you
Well it didn't cost much but I couldn't buy it back from you

All that time
Was just a map
Drew those lines
They circled back
Now it's all just stolen away
It's all just stolen away

Well it didn't cost much but I couldn't buy it back from you
