Their second album, Close to the Edge, released the following year, had three Top 10 singles and went gold. In 1994, their third album was released. Love a Little Stronger wasn't very successful commercially, but did produce another Top 5 single in the title track.

The mid-90's marked both a low point in album-naming creativity and a high point in chart success. Their fourth album, innovatively titled IV and released in 1996, spun off three Top 5 singles. (One of these, "It's All In Your Head", featured a video with Martin Sheen as a fiery preacher engaged in snake handling, mirroring the lyrics of the song.) In 1997, Diamond Rio released its first greatest hits album, entitled Greatest Hits. The album had two brand-new songs: "How Your Love Makes Me Feel" hit #1, and "Imagine That" became yet another top 5 hit. In 1998, Unbelievable was released, giving the band two more top 5 singles. The title track also reached the top 40 on the Pop charts. In 2001, the band released One More Day, whose title track became another chart-topper. The following year, the band released Completely, whose lead track, "Beautiful Mess", became their 4th #1 hit. The album also spawned another #1 single in "I Believe".

Nothing In This World
Diamond Rio Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well since the day the world began
I know God has had a master plan
He made a sky to hold the sun
He made sands to hold the sea
He made hearts for never ending love
And he made you for me

[Chorus]

No hurricane, no driving rain
Has our kind of power
No valley wide, no mountain slide
Can hold a love like ours
No ocean deep, no fire's heat
Can break a bond so true
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing in this world's
As strong as me and you

Through all the days and darkest nights
Our love will be the guiding light
With every breath I take
And every day I'm awake
This love of ours will never fade
Until the end of time

[Chorus]

Oh, no love I know of,
Can hold me like you do

[Chorus]

Strong as me and you
As strong as me and you
