Aslyn - Wish You Were Here lyrics

rate me

I'm standing on this wooden pier<br />

Just people getting along<br />

A little boy with his fishing gear<br />

And an old man playing a song<br />

I took a picture of these strangers<br />

Just like you would do<br />

I feel so underworked and out of danger<br />

I wish that you could too<br />

<br />

I wish you were here<br />

To soak up this town<br />

I can't wait any longer<br />

The sun's going down<br />

And I've been thinking, lately<br />

Holding back a tear<br />

I wish you were here<br />

<br />

I walked along the sandy shore<br />

Holding both my shoes<br />

And I could smell the candy store<br />

And your honey-glazed cashews<br />

A family on a blanket<br />

Full of sunscreen, shades and food<br />

A radio playing Maggie May<br />

I almost came unglued<br />

<br />

I wish you were here<br />

I think you'd love this town<br />

I can't wait any longer<br />

The sun's almost down<br />

And I've been thinking, lately<br />

Holding back a tear<br />

I wish you were here<br />

<br />

And you're the one that carries me<br />

When my head feels out of control<br />

And you will always be the one<br />

That lingers in my soul<br />

<br />

I wish you were here<br />

I know you'll love this town<br />

I can't wait any longer<br />

The sun's just went down<br />

And I've been thinking, lately<br />

Holding back a tear<br />

I wish you were here<br />

In the light from these lamps on this lonely street<br />

And I've been thinking, lately<br />

Still holding back a tear<br />

I wish you were here<br />

I wish you were here
