Diamonds Songtext
von John Farnham

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 I looked up, found it out of reach

Diamonds on the water (on the water)
I saw starfire on the sea
There were diamonds on the water (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

Diamonds on the water (on the water)
I saw starfire on the sea
There were diamonds on the water (on the water)
You don't need to sleep to have a dream


Here I am
I′m standing on the edge of here and now
Here I am
My time is coming round
Here I am
Dust to dust, I carry ancient ground

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

Diamonds on the water (on the water)
I saw starfire on the sea
There were diamonds on the water (on the water)
You don't need to sleep

Diamonds on the water (on the water)
I saw starfire on the sea
Diamonds on the water (on the water)
You don't need to sleep

Diamonds on the water (on the water)
Starfire on the sea
Diamonds on the water (on the water)
You don′t need to sleep
Diamonds on the water (on the water)
Starfire on the sea
Diamonds on the water (on the water)
