Wish You Were Here

The Busters


So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell, 
blue skies from pain 
Can you tell a green field
from a cold steel 
A smile from a veil 
Do you think you can tell
And did they get you to trade
heroes for ghosts 
Hot ashes for trees 
Hot air for cool breeze 
Cold comfort for change 
And did you exchange a walk on the part in the war 
For a lead role in a cage 

How I wish 
How I wish you were here
We are just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl 
Year after year running over the same old ground 
What have we found 
the same old fears 
Wish you were here
