Wish You Were Here lyrics

I can be tough

I can be strong

But with you, it's not like that at all



There's a girl

who gives a shit

behind this wall

You've just walked through it



And I remember, all those crazy things you said

You left them running through my head

You're always there, you're everywhere

But right now I wish you were here.

All those crazy things we did

Didn't think about it, just went with it

You're always there, you're everywhere

But right now I wish you were here



Damn, Damn, Damn,

What I'd do to have you

here, here, here

I wish you were here.

Damn, Damn, Damn

What I'd do to have you

near, near, near

I wish you were here.



I love the way you are

It's who I am, don't have to try hard

We always say, say like it is

And the truth is that I really miss



All those crazy things you said

You left them running through my head

You're always there, you're everywhere

But right now I wish you were here.

All those crazy things we did

Didn't think about it, just went with it

Chorus:

Damn, Damn, Damn,




What I'd do to have you

here, here, here

I wish you were here.

Damn, Damn, Damn

What I'd do to have you

near, near, near

I wish you were here.



Bridge:



No, I don't wanna let go

I just wanna let you to know

That I never wanna let go



(let go let go let go let go)





No, I don't wanna let go

I just wanna let you to know

That I never wanna let go



(let go let go let go let go let go let go let go)



Damn, Damn, Damn,

What I'd do to have you

here, here, here

I wish you were here (I wish you were)

Damn, Damn, Damn

What I'd do to have you

near, near, near

I wish you were here.



Damn, Damn, Damn,

What I'd do to have you

here, here, here

I wish you were here.

Damn, Damn, Damn

What I'd do to have you

near, near, near

I wish you were here.
