As a little girl I came down to the water
With a little stone in my hand
And it would shimmer and sing
And I knew everything
As a little girl I came down

In a little while I got steeped in authority
Heaven only knows what went wrong
When there is nothing so cruel
Than to bury that jewel when it was mine all along
And I'm gonna' find it

-Chorus-
You're shining, I can see you
You're smiling, that's enough well
I'm holding onto you like a diamond in the rough
Like a diamond in the rough

Every now and then I can see that I am getting somewhere
Where I have to go is so deep
I was angry back then, and you know I still am
I have lost too much sleep and I'm gonna' find it

(Chorus)

Snakes in the grass better step on the gas
Snakes in the grass better step on the gas

In my dreams I go down by the water
With a little girl in my arms and we shimmer and sing
And we know everything
In my dreams I go down
I go down

(Chorus)
