Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Diamonds are forever

They are all I need to please me

They can stimulate and tease me

They won't leave in the night

I've no fear that they might desert me

[Verse 2]

Diamonds are forever

Hold one up and then caress it

Touch it, stroke it, and undress it

I can see every part

Nothing hides in the heart to hurt me

[Verse 3]

I don't need love

For what good would love do me?

Diamonds never lie to me

For when love's gone

They'll luster on

[Verse 4]

Diamonds are forever

Sparkling round my little finger

Unlike men, the diamonds linger

Men are mere mortals who

Are not worth goin' to your grave for

[Verse 5]

I don't need love

For what good would love do me?

Diamonds never lie to me

For when love's gone

They'll luster on

[Verse 6]

Diamonds are forever, forever, forever

Diamonds are forever and ever

Forever and ever

Written by: Don Black, John Barry
