DIAMOND MOUNTAIN
by LUKA BLOOM
Voices cry out, shells of houses
White-faced children, hungry eyes
The cruel sea calls the unwilling traveller
Who would look for the road to survival
Hold my hand a little longer
Take one last look out over the fields
To the reds and the browns of Diamond Mountain
Bring the smell and the sound to your station
I will be here when you need me
I will be here in the pouring rain
I will be here on Diamond Mountain
They bring their song line to Australia
Scattering magical airs, cities, towns
The dreaming road to Diamond Mountain
An ordinary wonder on the heather ground
Hold my hand a little longer
Take one last look out over the fields
To the reds and the browns of Diamond Mountain
Bring the smell and the sound to your station
I will be here when you need me
I will be here in the pouring rain
I will be here on Diamond Mountain
He kisses his love on Diamond Mountain
The mad wind whistles, bushes and stones
Like two March swallows back on the mountain
Come full circle at last, heaven, home
I will be here when you need me
I will be here in the pouring rain
I will be here on Diamond Mountain

Heard this on Sirius coffee house about a month ago, second time I heard it it really sank in. Even if you don't listen to the words closely you can't help but feel some type of feeling this song imparts of a struggle towards something great! 11 years ago

Luka sings this song very sensetive. You here the sadness in his voice of the peolpe who had to emigrate for a better live(perhaps). This is my favorite song and I hope that I will hear luka singing this song live one time. Addo1945 adrievdweegen12 years ago

Hallo. This song is the most sensetive song I have ever heard. When you know the history of Irland you understand this song. I hope that I hear Luka singing this song live. There is nothing better then live. Tasman 5312 years ago

Thanks so much for posting this. I'm a big luka bloom fan. I've never seen him live but have been listening to the CD with Diamond Mountain off and on over the years. (So many amazing songs on that CD!) Recently been checking out some of his live performances online and so thankful that people have posted these!14 years ago
