| They say diamonds are forever
|
| But I say only time will tell
|
| They say money makes you happy
|
| But I’m not buying what they sell
|
| Oh, 'cause beauty, fame and fortune
|
| How they sparkle to the eye
|
| And fireworks burn brightly
|
| 'Til they fall out of the sky
|
| Don’t wanna live for something temporary
|
| I set my sights on eternity
|
| A world of lesser things shines before me
|
| But there’s a difference between glitter and glory
|
| Glitter and glory
|
| Some will see their name in neon
|
| Think they’ve finally got it made
|
| But there always comes a moment
|
| When they watch it fade away
|
| I’ve seen power and possessions
|
| Take an inch then take control
|
| Don’t wanna gain the whole world
|
| And lose my soul
|
| Don’t wanna live for something temporary
|
| I set my sights on eternity
|
| A world of lesser things shines before me
|
| But there’s a difference between glitter and glory
|
| Glitter and glory
|
| You’re the treasure I see
|
| You’re all that I need
|
| God, help me to see
|
| The difference between glitter and glory
|
| Uh-huh, yeah
|
| Don’t want to live for something temporary
|
| I set my sights on eternity
|
| A world of lesser things shines before me
|
| But there’s a difference between glitter and glory
|
| Glitter and glory
|
| Glitter and glory
|
| Glitter and glory |
