"Wish You Were Here" Lyrics

And disciplinary remains mercifully

Yes and um,

I'm with you Derek, this star nonsense

Yes, yes

Now which is it?

I am sure of it

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 veil?

Do you think you can tell?

 

Did they get you to trade

Your heroes for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change?

Did you exchange?

A walk-on part in the war

For a leading role in a cage?

 

How I wish, 

How I wish you were here

We're just two lost souls

Swimming in a fish bowl

Year after year

Running over 

The same old ground

What have we found?

The same old fears

Wish you were here
