Lyrics[]

Another day is like a new beginning

And so today I know that it's a new start

I know the bad times are disappearing

Cause now I know that we'll never be apart

You're the one that makes me feel so high

Just like the diamonds in the sky

I never want to hear you say goodbye

Cause you're my diamond in the sky

You're the one that makes me feel so high

Just like the diamonds in the sky

I never want to hear you say goodbye

Cause you're my diamond in the sky

Another road that we must travel

Another night for you to show me the way

And so today, I give up dreaming

Cause now I know, that I need you everyday

You're the one that makes me feel so high

Just like the diamonds in the sky

I never want to hear you say goodbye

Cause you're my diamond in the sky

You're the one that makes me feel so high

Just like the diamonds in the sky

I never want to hear you say goodbye

Cause you're my diamond in the sky

Where do all the rainbows go?

To somewhere I don't know

Wherever it is, I want to go

Oh...

Wherever it is I want to go

Feel so high...

Feel so high!

You're the one that makes me feel so high

Just like the diamonds in the sky

I never want to hear you say goodbye

Cause you're my diamond in the sky

You're the one that makes me feel so high

Just like the diamonds in the sky

I never want to hear you say goodbye

Cause you're my diamond in the sky

Trivia[]

• "Diamond in the Sky" is subtly referenced in Act 2 of Sonic Mania's Stardust Speedway Zone. In it, the player can ride giant fireworks into the air, where they can find clusters of Rings in diamond formations (i.e. They are "diamonds" in the sky).
• Bentley Jones, known for his work in other Sonic soundtracks, would release an arrangement of this song alongside a ballad version in 2024, to mark his return to official Sonic projects. ^[1]
