Shine on you crazy diamond – Pink Floyd
Remember
when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy
diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the
sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the
crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown
on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come
on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine.
You
reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on
you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, but exposed in
the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your
welcome, with random precision,
rode
on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come
on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine.
Nobody
knows where you are, how near or how far.
Shine on you crazy
diamond.
Pile on many more layers and I'll be joining you
there.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
And we'll bask in the shadow
of yesterday's triumph,
and
sail on the steel breeze.
Come on you boy child, you winner and
loser,
come
on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine.
