Van morrison big blue diamonds lyrics

Blue diamonds, big blue diamonds on her finger

Instead of a little band of gold

Big diamonds, big blue diamonds tell the story

Of the love that no one man could hold



Oh, she wanted more than I had money to buy

So she left me sad and lonely I am told

Big diamonds, big blue diamonds

Now she'll trade them

For a love behind a little band of gold



Blue diamonds, big blue diamonds how they sparkle

But what can they do to warm your heart and soul

When you're lonesome in the moonlight and you want loving

Big blue diamonds don't they seem so reckless and bold



I gladly do my part oh, to mend a broken heart

But a love that's warmed over soon grows cold

Big diamonds, big blue diamonds

I don't want them, no
