So it gets to seven
And I think of nothing
But living in darkness
And the diamond lady
Well she´s not telling
I don´t even know her name

It´s amazing
Times have changed
In days of old
Imagination´d leave you standing
Out in the could

Dancing city
Now you´re talking
But where´s your soul
-You´ve a thousand faces
I´ll never know

There are complications
And compensations
If you know the game
Agitated in Xenon nightly
I´ll take you home again

Travel way downtown
In search of nothing
But the sky at night
And the diamond lady
Well she´s not talking
But that´s alright

So I turn the pages
And tell the story
From town to town
People tell me
Be determined
Poor country boy

Too much luck
Means too much trouble
Much time alone
But arm in arm
With my seaside diamond
I´ll soon be home
