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,
Sail on the steel breeze.
Come on, you boy child, you winner and loser,
Come on, you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!
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,
Sail on the steel breeze.
Come on, you boy child, you winner and loser,
Come on, you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!
