Wish You Were Here Lyrics

by The Get Up Kids

[Verse 1]
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
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e119687-the_get_up_kids~wish_you_were_here_lyrics.html ]
[Pre-Chorus]
But hours pass like years
Wish you were here
Wish you were here

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
But hours pass like years
I wish you were here

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
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
