Moses Lyrics

Diamonds, roses, I need Moses

To cross this sea of loneliness, part this red river of pain

I don't necessarily buy any key to the future or happiness

But I need a little place in the sun sometimes or I think I'll die



And everywhere is somewhere but nowhere is near

Everybody's got somebody with their wine and their beer

But I'm a tragic figure in the corner over here

With an empty apartment and a best friend who is queer



Every time I see him he smiles

And tells me how well he's walking these miles

But he never ever asks a single thing about me

If I died he'd hear about it eventually



Diamonds, roses, I need Moses

To cross this sea of loneliness
[ Bette Midler Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]

Part this red river of pain, oh



'Cause everywhere is somewhere and nowhere is near

Everybody's got somebody with their wine and their beer

And I'm a tragic figure in the corner over here

With my bills in the mailbox and some checks that won't clear this year



Everywhere is somewhere and nowhere is near

Everybody's got somebody with their wine and their beer

So I'm just a tragic figure in the corner over here

Who'll sleep it off 'til morning and still not know that we're



We're all just diamonds and roses, I need Moses

To cross this sea of loneliness, part this red river of pain

To cross this sea of loneliness, part this red river of pain

To cross this sea of loneliness, part this red river of pain
