Wish You Were Here

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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? So you think you can tell? [Verse 2] 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 a cage? [Instrumental Interlude] [Chorus] 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 [Instrumental Interlude] [Chorus (with audience)] 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 [Spoken Outro (throughout cheers and applause)] Thank you so much! Happy Halloween!
