Song Description

Lament for a girl who married for money rather than marrying for love.

Lyrics

Your diamonds can?t talk to you

Always thought that you?d be mine
But our dreams don?t turn out right sometimes
And it?s me that?s left here asking
Why did you have to choose him?

How the hell does love turn bad
Were you blinded by the money he had
And it?s me that?s left here wondering
Why did you have to choose him?

Chorus:
And my skin would surely crawl
If he touches you at all
If you paint the town
You?d paint it blue
And your diamonds can?t talk to you
They?re just rhinestones
They?re just fools? gold
That ain?t love babe
And tomorrow
You will realise what you?ve got into
That your diamonds can?t talk to you

Hope you like what you?re doing with your life
Sitting in your mansion on the mountainside
And it?s me that?s left here asking
Why did you have to choose him?

Can?t no longer think about you
Do you do with him the things we used to do
And it?s me that?s left here wondering
Why did you have to choose him?

Chorus:
And my skin would surely crawl
If he touches you at all
If you paint the town
You?d paint it blue
And your diamonds can?t talk to you
They?re just rhinestones
They?re just fools? gold
That ain?t love babe
And tomorrow
You will realise what you?ve got into
That your diamonds can?t talk to you

Bridge:
Why did you have to choose him it makes me crazy
Can?t help but thinking all along you knew
Found out your love ain?t really real love
Can your diamonds talk to you, can your diamonds talk to you
