Diamond Mountain by Luka Bloom

                           
Voices cry out,   shells of houses
                              
White faced children,  hungry eyes
                                       
The cruel sea calls   to the unwilling traveller
                                  
Who would look for the road to survival


Chorus 1
                          
Hold my hand   a little longer
                                  
Take one last look out   over the fields
                                      
To the reds and the browns of diamond mountain
                                    
Bring the smell and the sound to your station


Chorus 2
                            
I will be here       when you need me
                                
I will be here       in the pouring  rain
                             
I will be here       on diamond mountain


Verse 2
                                   
They bring their song line   to Australia
                                 
Scattering magical airs   cities towns
                              
The dreaming road   to diamond mountain
                                  
An ordinary wonder   on the heather ground

Chorus 1

Chorus 2

Verse 3
                               
He kisses his love   on diamond mountain
                              
The mad wind whistles   bushes stones
                                     
Like two March swallows   back on thr mountain
                                   
Come full circle at last    heaven, home

Chorus 2
