Wish You Were Here
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell
Blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a wail?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war
For a lead role in the cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fishbowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What I've found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We are two lost souls
Swimming in a fishbowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What I've found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We are two lost souls
Swimming in a fishbowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What I've found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
Heaven from Hell
Blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a wail?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war
For a lead role in the cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fishbowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What I've found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We are two lost souls
Swimming in a fishbowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What I've found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We are two lost souls
Swimming in a fishbowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What I've found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
