Nobody knows where you are, how near or how far
Shine on you crazy diamond
Sail on the steel breeze
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky
Come on, you target for faraway laughter
Shine on you crazy diamond
Come on, you boy child, you winner and loser
Come on, you raver, you seer of visions
You were caught in the crossfire of childhood and stardom
Come on, you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine
Shine on you crazy diamond
And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph
Shine on you crazy diamond
Rode on the steel breeze
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon
Blown on the steel breeze
Shine on you crazy diamond
Well, you wore out your welcome with random precision
Come on, you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine
Pile on many more layers and I'll be joining you there
Threatened by shadows at night and exposed in the light
