A Diamond Behind The Dirt Lyrics - Emma Forman

I could tell by your eyes that you're down on your luck 

trying to keep up with the world around you 

but it is getting too hard to fake a smile 

it is getting too hard to even try 

*chorus 

And so much beauty that never gets noticed 

and so much sparkle that never gets seen 

In this world of greyness it is a shame nobody sees it 

there is a diamond behind the dirt 

there is a diamond behind the dirt 

And I I I wish you happiness 

And I I I wish you peace 

Yeah I wish they could see all your beauty 

I wish they could see there is a diamond behind the dirt 

there is a diamond behind the dirt 

you've stood on the edge and waited on a sign that everything would be alright 

if you believed you had to strong 

I know how it feels and I know it hurts 

*chorus 

there is a diamond behind the dirt
