Is it so hard to say the same thing? And you're so weak to say the same thing Burn a hole into your apprehensiveness And let the wildfire shine And repeat after me (like) Good girls go to heaven And bad girls go everywhere And tonight I will love you And tomorrow you won't care Precious little diamond I leave it all to you Precious little diamond Let it come to you You're in love with something bigger than love You believe in something stronger than trust Wanderlust Wanderlust Don't you shy away from me Just sacrifice your every last inhibition I'm on your side Don't patronize You know tonight Is the only time we'll have each other Why would you try to waste this precious time? Cuz tonight, we'll be right here And tomorrow you won't care Precious little diamond I leave it all to you Precious little diamond Let it come to you You're in love with something bigger than love You believe in something stronger than trust Wanderlust Wanderlust They're in love with this idea of love It's a shame that they'll believe it will come For us all, for us all You're in love with something bigger than love You believe in something stronger than trust Wanderlust Wanderlust Precious little diamond I leave it all to you Precious little diamond Let it come to you Precious little diamond I leave it all to you Precious little diamond Let it come to you Precious little diamond I leave it all to you Precious little diamond Let it come to you
