Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Remember when you were young
You shone like the sun
[Refrain]
Shine on, you crazy diamond
[Verse 2]
Now there's a look in your eyes
Like black holes in the sky
[Refrain]
Shine on, you crazy diamond
[Chorus]
You were caught in 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
[Verse 3]
You reached for the secret too soon
You cried for the moon
[Refrain]
Shine on, you crazy diamond
[Verse 4]
Threatened by shadows at night
And exposed in the light
[Refrain]
Shine on you crazy diamond
[Chorus]
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
