Shine On You Crazy Diamond

David Gilmour Live in Gdansk 

“Shine On You Crazy Diamond (I-V)”
Remember when you were young, you shone 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, you 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 of visions, come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Le parole sono carichi sospesi nell’aria, palle di fumo, un carro di nuvola.
Le parole che io dico, non sono mai quelle che intendi tu.
Le parole non dette rimangono in una sorta di limbo, e lí prendono forma di rimpianti o sogni.
