Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Part I and II)

SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND
(Part One)
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 cross fire 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 street 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!

SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND
(Part Two)
Pink Floyd

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 or loser
Come on you miner for truth and delusion
And shine!
