Wish You Were Here
Roger Waters, David Gilmour
[ZOEY]
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell? Blue skies from pain?
[DAVID]
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
[MAGGIE]
Do you think you can tell?
[EMILY]
Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
[MAGGIE]
Did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war
For a leading role in a cage?
[ALL]
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl
[MAGGIE]
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
[ALL]
What have we found?
The same old fears, wish you were here
