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.
Leave me something to find when you go
Draw a map or use a piece of string
It's getting dark and you're out of smokes
The things we used to hide behind everything
But I, I'm not wrong to wish you were stronger
I'm glad that you're gone but I think that I'm the goner
I pray for a good year, for that all to disappear
I'm glad that you're gone
But I wish you were here
I knew you once but then I didn't
We shared some clothes but then we didn't
And you asked me to dance but I said that I shouldn't
But you only asked because you knew that I wouldn't
But I, I'm not wrong to wish you were stronger
I'm glad that you're gone but baby I'm the goner
I pray for a good year, for that all to disappear
I'm glad that you're gone
But I wish you were here
I'm not wrong to wish you were stronger
I'm glad that you're gone but baby I'm the goner
I pray for a good year, for that all to disappear
I'm glad that you're gone
But I wish you were here
