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 veil ?
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 a cage?
Solo
Refrain :
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 you found ?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.
