A  Sweeping View

This started off as a memory of a special moment with a special woman,
but in the end this is my longing for my children. The music can be found
on my compositions page.
 


Diamonds in Your Eyes

 

When the moon peeks over the edge of the night,

I ne’er grow tired of her ivory beams of light,

Sparkling in the waves like diamonds in the sea;

Reminds me of diamonds I long to see.

Reminds me of diamonds I long to see.

 

When the sun rises over the dawn of the day

His blazing rays start reflecting off the bay

Dancing on the water like diamonds in the sea;

Reminds me of diamonds I long to see.

Reminds me of diamonds I long to see.

 

I have traveled far and I have traveled wide,

Cursing the reasons that keep me from your side,

From that damn desert war to a frozen arctic shore,

I’m missing the diamonds in your eyes;

Missing the diamonds in your eyes;

Missing the diamonds in your eyes;

Missing the diamonds in your eyes;

Still missing the diamonds in your eyes.
