I Wish You Were Here
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Did I fail you some way
That you're not telling now?
Did I fail you some way
Somewhere, somehow?
When you took that last step
Beyond the door
I can't follow you there
I can't follow for sure
It's a road that you take
All on your own
One you don't come back from
And there's no place like home
I wish you were here
How I wish you were here
I'm out on my own, I'm so far from home
And I wish you were here
Are you watching me now?
All alone in this place
Are you seeing me cry?
Oh, how I miss your facе
And the warmth of your smile
The light in your еyes
There was no fare thee well
And there was no goodbye
And I wish you were here
How I wish you were here
I'm out on my own, I'm so far from home
And I wish you were here
When I'm looking back
On the time that we shared
Hope you know you were loved
And that I always cared
I always cared
I know in my heart
That we'll meet again
I know deep inside
This isn't the end
And I wish you were here
How I wish you were here
I'm out on my own
And I wish you were here
Oh, I wish you were here
How I wish you were here
I'm out on my own, I'm so far from home
And I wish you were here
