Remember when you were young, you shown 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 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 and 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 for vision, 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 one you boychild, you winner and loser, come on you miner for truth and delusion and shine!

(Pink Floyd)
