Diamond Rain on Giants

(Verse 1) Miles beyond the pale blue dot we call our home Where the solar winds relentlessly roam Two colossal worlds, a swirling, gaseous haze Lost in the cosmic labyrinth of space No solid ground, no air that we can breathe Just hydrogen and helium underneath A swirling atmosphere, a tempest's mighty roar Holding secrets we could never quite explore... or so we thought before. (Chorus) Oh, the diamond rain on giants, falling slow Through the hydrogen depths, where pressures grow A sparkling storm, a cosmic, glittering shower On Jupiter and Saturn, for an endless hour Beyond our wildest dreams, a jewel-encrusted sky As carbon crystals drift and softly fly. (Verse 2) Electric storms ignite in fiery streaks Splitting methane molecules, where carbon speaks Compressed and squeezed by gravitational might Transformed from soot to pure, crystalline light A billion carats tumbling through the dark Leaving a shimmering, precious, cosmic mark While down on Earth, we chase the sun and dew Up there, the heavens make something brand new.
