Radiohead – Wish You Were Here lyrics
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell,
Blue skies from rain
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 you found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here...
Heaven from hell,
Blue skies from rain
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 you found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here...
