All The Diamonds In The World 241 Lyrics

all the diamonds in this world
that mean anything to me
are conjured up by wind and sunlight
sparkling on the sea

i ran aground in a harbour town
lost the taste for being free
thank God He sent some gull-chased ship
to carry me to sea

two thousand years and half a world awayCockburn Bruce - All The Diamonds In The World 241 - http://motolyrics.com/cockburn-bruce/all-the-diamonds-in-the-world-241-lyrics.html
dying trees still grow greener when you pray

silver scales flash bright and fade
in reeds along the shore
like a pearl in sea of liquid jade
His ship comes shining
like a crystal swan in a sky of suns
His ship comes shining.

(Stockholm -- 25/7/73
