Tonight's the night I think we gotta talk

And not in here - come on let's take a walk, yeah

You came for sex without much words

I understand that perfect but it starts to hurt

After a while I can't deliver

I'm feeling tired, cold and start to shiver

[Chorus:]

When you bring me these dirty diamonds

In exchange for some dirty love

You can't keep me with dirty diamonds

'Cause how can I be your lover

How can I exist when it kills my heart?

A broken toy made of silk and sweat

Another fix you ain't getting yet, no

I came for love and not some game

I understand you're crazy but I'm not that sane

Caught in the smile that's painted on you

I'm getting smarter now I gotta lose you

[Chorus]

Ooh - it was so beautiful when we started

Ooh - it ain't that beautiful how we parted

[Chorus]

You bring me these dirty diamonds

In exchange for some dirty love

You can't keep me with dirty diamonds

'Cause how can I be your lover

How can I exist?

No I cannot be your lover

I can't exist when it kills my heart
