Rea, Chris - Diamonds Lyrics
Oh getaway and don't come back
Who do you think you're fooling with lies like that?
You have dreams that set the rain on fire
Burning with a cheap desire
And it's plain as grey that what you say
My love, she don't need diamonds
My love's more than a sweet dream
And she don't need diamonds
She shakes her hip to the tambourine
And she don't need diamonds
If you can't love me for nothing
They you can't love me at all
And it's plain as grey that what you say
Have meanings of their own
We all got to dance, take a chance?
But babe you should have stayed at home
My love, my love, she don't need diamonds

Rea, Chris Diamonds Comments
This song did well in Australia, I love his earlier work as it shows a more soulful side.
This is a Sir Chris of the Boro belter. Nuff said.
One of my favourite songs from the 70s. I sang it in a cover band soon after it came out.
I honestly thought when this 1st hit the airwaves it would be a worldwide #1 hit. In 2019 it sounds just aa good. Guess it is a "lost classic " . Class is correct.
Still an absolute classic!
Brilliant
I dam like this song
Great song
This brilliant song is so well engineered it still sounds fantastic in 2019. Brings strong memories of when I was growing up and tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Thank you for posting this clip.
Chris Rea is just magic.
What year is this?
1979 I believe.
Love this song... My favourite!
❤️ My fav from Mr Rea👏
