Diamond Sea |

1 | Do you know, Chrysanthemum, | |
2 | I’m leaving when the morning comes | |
3 | Do you know, Chrysanthemum, | |
4 | I’m weary and my work is done. | |
5 | I want to go through that open door | |
6 | Far away where I can be free; | |
7 | Where the mountain snows | |
8 | Make the rivers run | |
9 |
To the diamond sea. |
|
10 | I saw myself walk by your side | |
11 | And I was happy once again. | |
12 | I took your small hand here in mine | |
13 | Just like it was - like it was then | |
14 | I’ve done my best to run and hide | |
15 | Rid myself of your sweet mem’ry | |
16 | Of the mountain snows | |
17 | And rivers that run | |
18 |
To the diamond sea |
|
19 | Do you know, Chrysanthemum, | |
20 | Though it can never be the same | |
21 | Though I return and you are gone, | |
22 | Gone forever like a perfect dream. | |
23 | I’ve got to breath that sacred air | |
24 | Got to feel our ground ‘neath my feet | |
25 | Under mountain snows | |
26 | Over rivers that run | |
27 |
To the diamond sea |
