Wish You Were Here Lyrics - The Catherine Wheel

So, so you think you can tell 

Heaven from Hell, blue sky 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 living in a fish bowl 

Year after year, going over the same old ground 

What have you found, the same old fears 

Wish you were here 

Oh, wish you were here, oh, wish you were here 

Oh, wish you were here, oh, wish you were here
