She Is a Diamond lyrics

It's all very well to a certain extent,

for the lady at the side of the president,

to show an interest in affairs.

But let's not be blind to drift of events,

she's eclipsing the strength of the government.

She should return to innocence.

She'll never win our heart...

She's a woman for a start...

She holds no elected post...

She's an ornament at most...

But on the other hand she's all they have.

She's a diamond in their dull grey lives,

and that's the hardest kind of stone,

it usually survives.

and if you think about it,

can you recall the last time they loved anyone at all?

She's not a bauble you can brush aside.

She's been out doing what we just talked about.

Example: Gave us back our businesses, got the English out.

And when you think about it, well why not do,

one or two of the things we promised to?

But on the other hand she's slowing down.

She's lost a little of that magic drive,

but I would not advise those critics present to derive

any satisfaction from her fading star,

she's the one whose kept us where we are.

"She's the one whose kept you where you are."
