Shine On You Crazy Diamond Lyrics

Shine On You Crazy Diamond

Remember when you were young
you shine 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 cross fire of childhood an 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 to soon
you cried for the moon
shine on you crazy diamond
threatened by shadow and might
and 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 vision
come on you painter
you piper
you prisoner
and shine !
