Shine On You Crazy Diamond I - V Lyrics

Shine On You Crazy Diamond I - V 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 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,
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 visions,
Come on you
painter,
You piper, you prisoner, and shine!
