Diamonds & Pearls (Title track)

Just showing some heart for my favorite song of all time worship I don't know what it is about this song, but from the moment I heard it years ago I was hooked wink Maybe it's the beautiful lyrics, maybe it's Prince/Rosie shrug But it is my #1 song and I love it-Thanks Prince razz

Absolutely love this song!
Lyrically it's simple but a standout. I love Prince's vocal delivery and Rosie is a great addition to the song. biggrin

This will be the day
That you will hear me say
That I will never run away
I am here for you
Love is meant for two
Now tell me what you're gonna do

If I gave you diamonds and pearls
Would you be a happy boy or a girl
If I could I would give you the world
But all I can do is just offer you my love

Which one of us is right
If we always fight
Why can't we just let love decide (Let love decide)

Am I the weaker man
Because I understand
That love must be the master plan (Love is the master plan)

If I gave you diamonds and pearls
Would you be a happy boy or a girl
If I could I would give you the world
But all I can do is just offer you my love

D to the I to the A to the M
O to the N to the D to the pearls of love
D to the I to the A to the M (To the M)
O to the N to the D to the pearls of love

There will come a time (There will come a time)
When love will blow your mind (Blow your mind)
And everything you look for you'll find (Take a look inside)
That will be the time (That will be the time)
That everything will shine (Forever)
So bright it makes you color blind (You will be color blind)

If I gave you diamonds and pearls
Would you be a happy boy or a girl
If I could I would give you the world
All I can do is just offer you my love

If I gave you diamonds and pearls (Pearls)
Would you be a happy boy or a girl (Yeah yeah)
If I could I would give you the world (Give you the world)
All I can do is just offer you my love (All I can do)

If I gave you diamonds and pearls (Diamonds)
Would you be, would you, would you
(Would ya, would ya, would ya be happy little baby)
A happy boy or a girl
If I could I would give you the world

This song metaphorically "sounds" like diamonds and pearls.
All beautiful, sophisticated, smooth, sexy and glittery sounds razz
I dig the curls in his hair too cool

Simply Beautiful...and so many times I say these simple words about Prince and his songs.

"Diamonds and Pearls," can just leave you without any other words except...simply beautiful. cool

I love this song. The union of Rosie's and Prince's vocals produced some beautiful music. I will never forget how wonderful they sounded together when they performed D&P live at the Special Olympics in MPLS.

perfection is a fallacy of the imagination...
