diamonds

Singer: farnham, john

i looked there across to the horizon

the moon was bright and high up in the east

i stretched out to touch what i was seeing

and then i looked up

and found it out of reach

there were diamonds on the water

i saw starfire on the sea

diamonds on the water

you don't need to sleep to have a dream

i believe that certain things can happen

to change the very nature of the beast

and i have been a witness to survival

nothing really has to rest in peace

there were diamonds on the water

i saw starfire on the sea

diamonds on the water

you don't need to sleep to have a dream

here i am

i'm standing on

there edge of here and now

here i am

my time is coming round

here i am

dust to dust

i carry ancient ground

now i am in a perfect situation

but thoughts intrude on me just like a thief

they steal me back

to all that i would run from

back from where i really want to be

there were diamonds on the water

i saw starfire on the sea

diamonds on the water

you don't need to sleep to have a dream
