Wish you were Here (Pink Floyd)
So, so ya 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 ya think ya can tell?
Did they get you to trade,
your hero's 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 lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here,
we're just two lost soles
swimming in a fish bowl,
year after year,
running over the same old ground,
but have we found the same old fears,
wish you were here...
