SHINE ON YOU, CRAZY DIAMOND
MUY SURREALISTA!
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 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! |
|
|
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 looser |
Come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine! |
