Julie waived her ticket
She tried to flag me down
She was clear across the station
I was near the lost and found
She called through swarms of people
To turn my head around
And her words were broken pieces
Scattered underground
Then we turned right
Over the city lights
Into the cool blue night
Straight out of paradise
Never good with good intentions
Moved quickly through the crowd
With my dizzy desperation
My head up in the clouds
When I heard her near the city
Slowly stopped to turn around
And her voice broke into diamonds
Sparkled words that cut me down
CHORUS
Cool blue diamonds in the sky
Cool blue diamonds - hey
Better find our way
When we crossed the flowing river
Holding safe to higher ground
A stranger from his window
Took his pen to write us down
And he found the perfect melody
He gazed back into town
As the sun set on our Waterloo
We never turned around
Then we went high
Over the city lights
Into the cool blue night
Straight out of paradise
(Cool blue diamonds in the sky)
Waterloo evening
Waterloo night
(Into the light)
