    Ambient House or Minimal-Anthemic Trance; maybe a little hard to read but it rolls in my head. But yeah it still needs a little work....?


    Diamonds

    Streaks of amber haze try to cover all the signs
    Of where we were but can't go back again
    Listening to a song I remember what went wrong
    Still dreaming... it's never gonna end

    Remember how it was and let the golden rays of time
    Take you up where you can see the stars
    Doesn't matter where we are or that you're no longer mine
    Forever's what it always was before

    (bridge)
    And I've never closed the door
    Never closed the door

    (chorus 1)
    I see you in moonlit dreams
    Dancing across time
    Starlight in your smile
    And diamonds in your eyes
    Love that never dies
    For the diamonds in your eyes

    Kissing eternity in pools of sacred memories
    Visions of your fingers laced in mine
    Chasing every moment of the beauty that was ours
    Diamonds in the desert sands of time

    (bridge)
    You will forever be mine
    Forever baby, mine

    (chorus 1)
    I see you in moonlit dreams
    Dancing across time
    Starlight in your smile
    And diamonds in your eyes
    Love that never dies
    For the diamonds in your eyes

    (chorus 2)
    Where the road divides
    What the amber haze hides
    I still see your face
    Opening love's gate
    Starlight in your hair
    And diamonds in your eyes
    Love that never dies
    For the diamonds in your eyes

    Diamonds in your eyes
    Diamonds in your eyes

    This didn't come out nearly the way I wanted it to. I may give it a rework over the weekend.

    I don't know what to say... This is..excellent. My favourite parts are the first bridge and the second chorus at the end which was a pleasant surprise.

    I forgot to say, this song reminds me a little of "To the moon & back" although your lyrics are better.

    @Moon, very good job! On my second reading of it, I also got the "flow" that you meant and heard; that is, I got the rhythm of the song!! It's very nice and easy in rhythm; but more complex in meaning, of course.

    One question, Moon . . . Each time I read "diamonds" in the lyrics (and quite beautifully said, mind you); yet you entitled it "Diamond"--does "Diamonds" fit your heart/meaning? (Or even "Diamonds in Your Eyes"?) Just one woman's small offering.

    Thanks guys! Days later, when I read it now, I feel a little more satisfied with it than I did at first.

    Yeah Frankie I think you're right. My original conception was that I wanted it to be singular, but Diamonds is definitely better as a title. I've changed it
