This diamond that lay on the grass by the fog of the sea
Reflecting the light from the house that towered over me
Shining love
Shining love
Plucked from the earth and cut in the palm of your hand
Etched through the age revelling the ways of your son
Shining love
Shining love
Then swooped a blackbird with greed in his eye
Captivated by the diamond driven by the prise
Then swooped a blackbird with greed in his eye
Captivated by the diamond driven by the prise
But before it was stolen the blackbird was slaughtered
By the lion that roared as it rose from the water
Shining love
He's shining love
He's shining love
He's shining love
