Lyrics Diamonds Are Forever - Shirley Bassey

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

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

I don't need love

For what good will love do me?

Diamonds never lie to me

For when love's gone

They'll luster on

Diamonds are forever

Sparkling 'round my little finger

Unlike men, the diamonds linger

Men are mere mortals who

Are not worth going to your grave for

I don't need love

For what good will love do me?

Diamonds never lie to me

For when love's gone

They'll luster on

Diamonds are forever, forever, forever

Forever and ever
