Diamonds used to be coal
Look young 'cause they got soul
And that's why they're beautiful
And my heart used to be cold
Till your hands laid on my soul
Baby, and that's why you're beautiful

I'm not wondering why
The sky's blue--that's not my business
All I know is I
Look up and tell myself, "be patient, love
That could be us"

The lovers used to make love
And die just to give us
Their piece of the beautiful
Remember when we made love
Love?
Wasn't it beautiful?

Don't ask me why
The sky's blue--that's not my business
All I know is I
Look up and tell myself, "be patient, love
That could be us"

Diamonds used to be coal
Look young 'cause they got soul
And my heart used to be cold
Till your hands laid on my soul
Somebody's gotta to stay deep in love
That could be us

That's why we're beautiful
That's why you're beautiful

That's why you're beautiful
That's why you're beautiful
That's why you're beautiful
