For my sister...
Diamonds on the Water
1961 - 1989
Although I know you had to go; It’s so hard to say goodbye
As I stand here and I watched you cross the border
While standing there I heard somewhere, Never let the well run dry
And your thoughts will shine like diamonds on the water
Oh…on the water
While looking through some photographs, and remembering days gone by
All these thoughts of you kept wondering through the morning
They made me sad, they made me smile, and as all the tears ran dry
I looked out at the sun upon the water
Oh…there were diamonds on the water
(Instr.)
It came to me so suddenly, just like echoes across the sky
There’s a part of you that never crossed the border
Cause if I still remember you, then the well can not run dry
For as long as there are diamonds on the water
Oh… there’ll be diamonds on the water
And oh… there’ll be diamonds on the water
