Diamonds,  roses,
 I need Moses to cross this  sea of lonliness,
 Part  this red river of pain.
 I don't necessarily buy any key to the future or happiness,
 But I need a  little place in the sun sometimes  or I think I will die.
 And everywhere  is somewhere  and nowhere is near,
 Everybody got  somebody with  their wine and their beer.
 So, I'm just  this tragic figure  in the corner over  here,
 With an empty  apartment and a best friend who is  a queer.
Everytime  I see him he smiles and he tells me how well he's walking these miles,
 But I he never  ever asks a single thing about me,
 If I die,  he'd hear about it eventually.

 Go home to an empty apartment  and call a best friend who is a queer.
Diamonds,  roses,
 I need Moses to cross this  sea of lonliness,
 Part  this red river of pain.
 to cross this  sea of lonliness,
 Part  this red river of pain.
 to cross this  sea of lonliness,
 Part  this red river of pain.
