Wish You Were Here [New York 7/2] Songtext
von Pink Floyd

And disciplinary remains mercifully
Yes, and um, I′m with you, Derek, this star nonsense
Yes, yes
Now which is it?
I am sure of it


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?

Did they get you to trade your heroes 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 souls swimming in a fishbowl, year after year
Running over the same old ground, what have we found?
The same old fears, wish you were here
