Lyrics
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.
I'm lying, pretending to myself that you are here
No sleeping, eyes open, I'm waiting your face appears
Why try to reach you now if I know you're far away?
I guess you don't know how I needed you to stay
Why miss you bad right now? These are too hard times to face
The lack of you makes hard face what I'm afraid
Oh, I miss you and I need you
Oh, I kiss you touching my lips
Oh, I hate you, but I love you
I know you found hope in a better place
Oh, I wish you were here
Oh, I wish you were here
Why couldn't you say goodbye?
At least it wouldn't hurt this way
But I know you found yourself in a better place
Oh, darling, I'm fighting, but is hurting every step I take
Cause it just reminds me
how better the world was when you were with me
Oh, I miss you and I need you
Oh, I kiss you touching my lips
Oh, I hate you, but I love you
I know you found hope in a better place
Oh, I wish you were here
Oh, I wish you were here
Why couldn't you say goodbye?
At least it wouldn't hurt this way
But I know you found yourself in a better place
