Purdy - Diamond In the Dust

When it came to die a best

I left you like a diamond in the dust

A million stars went out that night

a million reasons not to stay and fight

I've fled through the desert

with a belly full of lead

tried to fight off the shadows

in my drunken head

i hoped it was the last of you i'd see

but i prayed you'd soon catch up with me

and do that thing you do to me

so call me a mad girl

call me a bad girl

i'll be anything you want me to be

a diamond in the dust is too pretty to leave

undereath the pale blue sky

i recovered here in your deep blue eyes

i tried to see things like i should

why old hearts cannot be understood

i've slipped into the fire

with a heart full of desire

in the arms of a cowboy with a dream so high

there's no one else who can take me higher

so call me a mad girl

call me a bad girl

i'll be anything you want me to be

a diamond in the dust is too pretty to

call me a mad girl

call me a bad girl

do what you will

i'll love you still

with the hands

like that you know i'm yours to kill

i'm yours to kill

like a diamond in the dust

do what you will

i love you still

do what you will

i love you still

do what you will

i love you still

do what you will

i love you still

call me a mad girl

call me a bad girl

i'll be anything you want me to be

a diamond in the dust is too pretty to

call me a mad girl

call me a bad girl

do what you will

i love you still

with the hands

like that you know i'm yours to kill
