Raining Diamonds Lyrics

I declare, war on love.
I declare war on love.
Finally I'm burning the pages
and I declare a war on love.

And it's not fair, to put the blame of you.
It's not fair, to just blame you.
I kept denying the sound of the sirens,
and so it's not fair to just blame you.

For to long I played the pretender,
and now I'll never surrender.

I need it ra-ra-ra-raining diamonds
I need the Planets all aligning
I know that love is more than just surviving
I need it raining diamonds

I'm not scared, a little reckless maybe
Till I hold it in my hand
And when I fall madly, deeply
I wanna fall and never land

I need it ra-ra-ra-raining diamonds
I need the Planets all aligning
I know that love is more than just surviving
I need it raining diamonds

I've heard it, heard it, heard it
All the lines and the imperfections
But perfect words are worthless
I'd rather go it alone

I need it ra-ra-ra-raining diamonds
I need the Planets all aligning
I know that love is more than just surviving
I need it raining diamonds

I need it raining
Raining diamonds

I declare, war on love.
I declare war on love.
Finally I'm burning the pages
and I declare a war on love.

And it's not fair, to put the blame of you.
It's not fair, to just blame you.
I kept denying the sound of the sirens,
and so it's not fair to just blame you.

For to long I played the pretender,
and now I'll never surrender.

I need it ra-ra-ra-raining diamonds
I need the Planets all aligning
I know that love is more than just surviving
I need it raining diamonds

I'm not scared, a little reckless maybe
Till I hold it in my hand
And when I fall madly, deeply
I wanna fall and never land

I need it ra-ra-ra-raining diamonds
I need the Planets all aligning
I know that love is more than just surviving
I need it raining diamonds

I've heard it, heard it, heard it
All the lines and the imperfections
But perfect words are worthless
I'd rather go it alone

I need it ra-ra-ra-raining diamonds
I need the Planets all aligning
I know that love is more than just surviving
I need it raining diamonds

I need it raining
Raining diamonds

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
