Bruce Cockburn
All the Diamonds In the World
[Verse 1]
All the diamonds in this world
That mean anything to me
Are conjured up by wind and sunlight
Sparkling on the sea

[Verse 2]
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

[Bridge]
Two thousand years and half a world away
Dying trees still grow greener when you pray

[Verse 3]
Silver scales flash bright and fade
In reeds along the shore
Like a pearl in a sea of liquid jade
His ship comes shining
Like a crystal swan in a sky of suns
His ship comes shining
