Diamonds Never Made a Lady
Love's Deception: Diamonds Can't Buy True Happiness
Lyrics
Oh my heart is crying in the night for you
Expressing emotional pain and longing for someone.
Oh, my God, oh don't you feel like a fool
Expressing surprise or disbelief at someone's actions.
You're fooling yourself with a millionaire
Suggesting that the person is deceiving themselves by being involved with a wealthy person.
You think it's love but he don't care
Implying that despite feeling like love, the millionaire doesn't reciprocate those feelings.
And one of these days
Hinting at a future event or realization.
You're gonna be surprised
Anticipating a surprising revelation or change.
Diamonds never made a lady, lover or a friend
Stating that material possessions like diamonds can't create genuine relationships or friendships.
I know it
Reinforcing the belief that diamonds cannot fulfill emotional needs.
Diamonds never made a lady, all your dreams will end
Reiterating that diamonds cannot satisfy one's dreams or desires.
I know it
Reaffirming the conviction that diamonds won't lead to fulfillment.
Your Californian nights
Referencing nights in California, possibly implying a superficial or fleeting experience.
Warm body held you tight
Describing a physical closeness in a warm embrace.
Was just a dream
Suggesting that the warmth experienced was only a fantasy.
But all the diamond lights
Implying that materialistic displays like diamond lights cannot bring contentment or peace.
Can't give you peaceful lives or sweet dreams
Emphasizing that wealth and luxury cannot guarantee a fulfilling life or pleasant dreams.
Oh my God, you really think you have it made
Expressing disbelief at someone's perceived success or happiness.
Your heart is won, with first class expenses paid
Highlighting that material gains don't equate to genuine emotional connections.
You drink campaign, eat caviar
Listing luxurious activities and possessions acquired, suggesting a lavish lifestyle.
A colour TV in the back of your car
Further illustrating material wealth, like a TV in the car.
But one of these days
Repeating the anticipation of a future revelation or surprise.
You're gonna be surpised
Reiterating the expectation of being taken aback or surprised soon.
