Christy Moore - Listen

Shine on You Crazy Diamond

Remember when you were young
you shone like the sun shine
on you crazy diamond.
now theres a look in your eye
like black holes in the sky
shine on you crazy diamond
you were caught in the crossfire of
childhood and stardom and
blown upon the steel breeze
come on you target for
faraway laughter
come on you legend[
you stranger
you martyr and shine
You reached for the secret too soon you cried for the moon
shine on you crazy diamond
frightened by shadows at night, exposed in the light
shine on you crazy diamond
you wore out your welcome with random precision
you rode upon 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 I'll be joining you there
shine on you crazy diamond
and we'll bask in the shadow of yesterdays triumph we'll sail
upon the steel breeze
come on you boy child you winner and looser,
Come on you miner of truth and delusion and shine
