about

Past, present, future.
Enjoy the life you've lived so far, the experienceS you've had, the people you've met, the things you've accomplished but don't dwell there.
This moment is all you truly have.
Aspire to a better future for you and for the world!

lyrics

DIAMONDS IN THE SKY

Verse 1
IN THE STORM’S EYE
AS SHEETS OF RAIN BEAT FIELDS OF GRAIN
LIGHTNING RIPS THE SKY
I WAIT FOR THE STORM TO ABATE
NO MORE DIAMONDS IN THE SKY
I FACE THE STORM ALONE
BLUE SKIES ALL GONE
LEAVING ME TO CARRY ON

Chorus 1
THAT WAS A TIME IN MY LIFE – WHEN I COULD NOT BREAK FREE
WHEN NO ONE COULD HEAR – MY PLEA
WHEN THE SKY WAS GRAY AND BLACK – I COULD NOT SEE
THAT HEAVEN WAS WAITING – FOR ME
Instrumental; Am – D – G – Cmaj7 – Am – B – E – E7

Verse 2
PAST THE TIMES STILL AHEAD
I HEAR A FAINT, FAINT SONG
AND THOUGH THE WAY WAS NOT CLEAR
I HAD PAID FOR THE ROAD I WAS ON

Instrumental Break; Am – B – Em – Em7 – C – Am - D – Em

Bridge;
LEAVING THE PAST YOU MUST HAVE NO FEAR
TO QUESTION THE ANSWER TRY
FOLLOW THIS MOMENT AND DON’T ASK WHY
YOU’LL FIND THAT HEAVEN WAITS THERE

Verse 3
THROUGH THE STORM MY LOVE RAN
I FELT A SWEET EMBRACE
-LEFT MY HOME SAFE AND WARM
LEAVING NO TRACK OR TRACE
NOW THERE ARE DIAMONDS IN THE SKY
HEAVEN ON THE OTHER SIDE
I’D FOUND UNENDING LOVE
HAD BEEN HIDDEN BY MY PRIDE

Chorus 2
THERE WAS A TIME IN MY LIFE - WHEN I COULD NOT BREAK FREE
FROM THE NOTION OF WHAT WAS ME
WITH THE STORM CLOUDS SO DARK – THAT I COULD NOT SEE

THAT THE MOMENT WOULD COME
YEAH THE MOMENT WOULD COME
YEAH THE MOMENT WAS WAITING FOR ME

THAT THE MOMENT WOULD COME
YEAH THE MOMENT WOULD COME
YEAH HEAVEN WAS WAITING FOR ME
