Diamond Eyes is a song by Clara Moroni under the alias Vanessa.
The song was released together with three other Vanessa songs ("Why Did You Break My Heart", "Open Up Your Eyes", and "Eternity") in a vinyl EP released by Loading Bay Records in 1993 for the British market.
For a Eurobeat/Hi-NRG song, it employs a noticeably irregular lyrical structure, lacking a bridge and instead the verses go straight before the synthesizer riff and chorus.
Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Diamond eyes
Lost in a sleep eternal you
Don't wake up, don't give up
Diamond eyes
You're lying on the silver moon
Don't wake up, don't give up
[Chorus]
Diamond eyes
Don't wake up, don't give up to you...
Lock up your mind in the world of your dreams
Let's meet together in tomorrow nights
Lock up your mind in the world of your dreams
Let's meet together in tomorrow nights
Lock up your mind in the world of your dreams
Let's meet together in tomorrow nights
Lock up your mind in the world of your dreams
[Verse 2]
Diamond eyes
Deep in the wood your body rests
Don't wake up, don't give up
Diamond eyes
The enchanted purple lips lasts
Don't wake up, don't give up
