Diamonds

Russell morris, john farnham, and ross fraser



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
