Lyrics

So you think, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell
Blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange
Or walk apart in a war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimmin' 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
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimmin' 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
Written by: David Gilmour, Roger Waters
