Shine On You Crazy Diamond lyrics

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
in 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

And exposed
in the light

Shine on you
crazy diamond

Well you rode out
your welcome
with random precision
rode on the steel breeze

Come on you raver
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

I'll be joining
you there

Shine on you
crazy diamond

And we'll bask
in the shadow
of yesterday's triumph
sail on the
steel breeze

Come on you boy child
you winner and loser

Come on you miner
for truth and delusion
and shine....
