Wish You Were Here |
|
So, so you think you can tell |
|
Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pale? |
|
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? |
|
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. |
