Then Again...

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
