ASLYN LYRICS - Wish You Were Here

"Wish You Were Here"



I'm standing on this wooden pier

Just people getting along

A little boy with his fishing gear

And an old man playing a song

I took a picture of these strangers

Just like you would do

I feel so underworked and out of danger

I wish that you could too



I wish you were here

To soak up this town

I can't wait any longer

The sun's going down

And I've been thinking, lately

Holding back a tear

I wish you were here



I walked along the sandy shore

Holding both my shoes

And I could smell the candy store

And your honey-glazed cashews

A family on a blanket

Full of sunscreen, shades and food

A radio playing Maggie May

I almost came unglued



I wish you were here

I think you'd love this town

I can't wait any longer

The sun's almost down

And I've been thinking, lately

Holding back a tear

I wish you were here



And you're the one that carries me

When my head feels out of control

And you will always be the one

That lingers in my soul



I wish you were here

I know you'll love this town

I can't wait any longer

The sun's just went down

And I've been thinking, lately

Holding back a tear

I wish you were here

In the light from these lamps on this lonely street

And I've been thinking, lately

Still holding back a tear

I wish you were here

I wish you were here
