Jewel

I’m no good at swimming
I got no use of diving
Even in a scuba suit I’d still feel like I’m dying
I don’t need to look for buried treasure on an island
I have you
‘Cause you’re my jewel
So call the search off

I didn’t think I’d find you
Looked for every message in a bottle and caught lightning
I never have to go too far
Without feeling the light that comes from you
‘Cause you’re my jewel

Diamonds are forever
But I got something better
Yes, I do
All the precious metals
Are just roses without petals
Next to you

‘Cause you’re my jewel
You’re my jewel
There’s a rooster
In the yard behind us

Crowing at all hours of the day
He must be blind but
He only has to get it right just once
Like I got it right with you
‘Cause you’re my jewel

Diamonds are forever
But I got something better
Yes, I do
All the precious metals
Are just roses without petals
Next to you

‘Cause you’re my jewel
You’re my jewel
Emeralds and rubies
They all mean nothing to me
The only pearls that drew me were your eyes
When they looked right through me

It shook me and it moved me
Something in my heart then crystalized
Crystalized

Diamonds are forever
But I got something better
Yes, I do
All the precious metals
Are just roses without petals
Next to you

‘Cause you’re my jewel
You’re my jewel
You’re my jewel
You’re my jewel
