Wish That You Were Here lyrics

[Verse 1]

I tried to leave it all behind me

But I woke up and there they were beside me

And I don't believe it but I guess it's true

Some feelings, they can travel too

Oh there it is again, sitting on my chest

Makes it hard to catch my breath

I scramble for the light of change

[Pre-Chorus]

You're always on my mind

You're always on my mind

[Chorus]

And I never minded being on my own

Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home

To be where you are

But even closer to you, you seem so very far

And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing

And I hope it gets to you on some pacific wind

Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear

Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here

[Verse 2]

And if I stay home, I don't know

There'll be so much that I'll have to let go

You're disappearing all the time

But I still see you in the light

For you, the shadows fight

And it's beautiful but there's that tug in the sight

I must stop time traveling, you're always on my mind

[Pre-Chorus]

You're always on my mind

You're always on my mind

[Chorus]

And I never minded being on my own

Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home

To be where you are

But even closer to you, you seem so very far

And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing

And I hope it gets to you on some pacific wind

Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear

Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here

[Bridge]

We all need something watching over us

Be it the falcons, the clouds or the cross

And then the sea swept in and left us all speechless

Speechless

[Chorus]

And I never minded being on my own

Then something broke in me and I wanted to go home

To be where you are

But even closer to you, you seem so very far

And now I'm reaching out with every note I sing

And I hope it gets to you on some pacific wind

Wraps itself around you and whispers in your ear

Tells you that I miss you and I wish that you were here

[Post-Chorus]

Wish that you were here

Wish that you were here

Wish that you were here

I wish that you...
