Lyrics for Diamond River by Dave Stewart and Sylvie Marechal from the album Faith Healing

You’ve got nothing else but sun and sand
A million plans in your head
Nothing in your hand
Another hard day at your front door
You’ve got to try harder if you want to get more.

Every morning and every lonely night
Remember her and keep in believing in your stered light.

Diamond river; oh the river, Diamond river, ah the river

Surely one day you’ll get back there ‘
Cause she’s the only one the first real love you shared.
This has got to be like fire
Keep on burning in your heart and you’ll fly higher

Every morning and every lonely night
Remember her and keep on believing in your sacred light.

Diamond river, oh the river, Diamond river, ah the river

So you don’t have to be lonely anymore
Just look out at the sun
See her smile and maybe more
So don’t let your tears
Fall on the Bar room floor

Diamond river, oh the river, Diamond river, ah the river

Keep in believing in your sacred light.
