How I wish
How I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimmin' in a fish bowl
Year after year.
Runnin' over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
How I wish you were here.

I'll light the fire
You place the flowers in the vase
That you bought today

Well it's been a long time, a long time now
Since I've seen you smile

Look who's laughing now that you've
Wasted
How many years and
You've barely even tasted
Anything remotely close to
Everything you've boasted about
Look who's crying now.

There is gold across the river
But I don't want none
I would rather be dry than held up by a golden gun saying
Work more
Earn more
Live more
Have more fun
