"Wish You Were Here" lyrics
"Wish You Were Here"
Would you stay for one night
If I didn't come home?
The end of a big fight
Doesn't matter anymore
At that point in my midlife
The situation stands
But hours pass like years
Wish you were here
Wish you were here
Did I open an old wound?
Is there something I should know?
If it's all ending so soon
How could I possibly let go?
Comes to a head, this is high noon
The finale we have planned
But hours pass like years
I wish you were here
Say the words so slow
Say it without fear
You won't turn to go
You won't leave me here
The past is all we know
The memories are clear
Wish you were here
If I told you, were you listening?
Did you know this from the start?
Do the dates match exactly?
Did you plan when we would part?
If I won't wait for another year
I guess you'll break my heart
It's true
You already knew
So take this as a souvenir
Remember me, I'm waiting here
The disappointed, hanger on
Who stayed behind while you moved on
I wish you were here

When she's around
I was on the tracks
When the gates came down
When suddenly I recognized
Those bloodshot rearview mirror eyes as mine
And I heard that whistle call my name...
Mae - "Skyline Drive" Sometimes I run, but I'm not afraid.
Why must you bring up all mistakes that I've made?
She makes me smile, then you come around.
The wind in her hair reflects the sunset I see.

Superchunk - "Driveway To Driveway" I still have briers in my clothes
Did I lay you down in those?
The names on the stones were all erased
And I thought it was you that I had chased
Driveway to driveway drunk
I don't remember this too...

I see you're under my skin
Cruel to say
I've known the best of my life
Never again to hear
The rivers' song so clear
Everyday's another scene
