Alpha Blondy I Wish You Were Here song lyrics

So, so you think you can tell

Heaven from Hell

Blue skys from pain.

Can you tell a green field

From a cold steel rail?

A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade

Your heros for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change?

And did you exchange

A walk on part in the war

For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I Wish You Were Here.

We're 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.

Oh I Wish you were here

So, so you think you can tell

Heaven from Hell

Blue skys from pain.

Can you tell a green field

From a cold steel rail?

A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

We're 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.

Oh I Wish you were here

How I wish how I wish you were here X2

We're just two lost souls (How I wish how I wish you were here)

Swimming in a fish bowl

Year after year

Running over the same old ground. (How I wish how I wish you were here)

What have we found?

The same old fears. (How I wish how I wish you were here)
