Ttd's Recurring Dream Lyrics - Terence Trent Darby

Diamonds in the rain 

In the first dream you were a driver 

And I was a car, we didn't get real far 

We took a highway full of black top roadkill 

Could that be me? 

Could that be you? 

(Could that be me?) 

In the 2nd dream you were a rifle 

And I was a deer but with no shelter near 

You were camouflaged 

In pain I couldn't see through 

Could that be me? 

Could that be you? 

(Could that be me?) 

The slow striptease of time 

Releases now the seven veils 

And ages of sweet wanderlust 

Steals about a half step from my stride 

And hold me now accountable 

And throws a finger at my trust 

And barks like a big dog at my pride 

But shows me diamonds in the rain 

Diamonds in the rain that'll sparkle till I die 

Diamonds in the rain 

In this recurring dream 

You said you were lonely 

I said everyone's lonely 

And not just you 

Some people just hide their loneliness 

Behind the coats of others 

Could that be me? 

Could that be you? 

(Could that be me?) 

Please don't let that be me and you! 

Diamonds in the rain that'll sparkle till I die 

Diamonds in the rain
