"Harder Than Diamond" lyrics - CHUBBY CHECKER

You can take what you want forever,
And then throw it all away,
But the heart that you left behind you
Still haunts you 'til this day

In the time that it takes to feel it,
Your new, familiar dreams,
But it's the one that keeps you up at night,
Makes you wonder what it means

Harder than diamond
Cutting like a knife
Bars on the windows
Shadows on the mind

As you walk through the hall of mirrors,
Your feet above the ground,
You see somebody, they start to laugh,
But you never hear the sound

Now you know that you're only dreaming,
But still you have to steel,

You won't wake up tomorrow
As you watch yourself disappear

Harder than diamond
Cutting like a knife
Bars on the windows
Shadows on the mind
Shadows on the mind

Harder than diamond
Cutting like a knife
Bars on the windows
Shadows on the mind

Harder than diamond
Cutting like a knife
Bars on the windows
Harder than diamond [3x]
