Cost of diamond, many cannot afford.
Just a few have the wealth to passes gold
Money, affluence, wealth and power; good, these things are
Alas! They are not the best things in life
‘Cos, away they fade with time.
Yet best things in life are constant and renewable
A dime, you do not pay for the air you breathe
For everybody, existence is generous
And belonging to somebody you love; love is free,
You are the best things that happen to me
So I say the best things in life are free.
