Wish You Were Here

Take it slow, tell me all

How you've grown just for me

Could we all reminisce?

Better yet, here's a pen

Make a list

Fill it full of all the things I've missed

'Cause I can barely drive past the school

Without stopping to think of you

And how we used to act the fool

But worst of all I wish I called

At least a thousand times or more

Just to hear what I've been missing

If a picture is all that I have

I can picture the times that we won't get back

If I picture it now it don't seem so bad

Either way, I still wish you were here

Don't say everything's meant to be

'Cause you know it's not what I believe

Can't help but think that it should've been me

Either way, I still wish you were here

Thinking back on the days

Where we all used to say

I know anywhere's better than here

In the back of the class

Where we grew up too fast

Living life like there's nothing to fear

But the eyes on the road

Driving home all alone

Singing along to a song from three summers ago

The one that made you remember it

Now I'll always remember it

As the song that your life ended with

If a picture is all that I have

I can picture the times that we won't get back

If I picture it now it don't seem so bad

Either way, I still wish you were here

Don't say everything's meant to be

'Cause you know it's not what I believe

Can't help but think that it should've been me

Either way, I still wish you were here

And they say you're in a better place

But a better place is right here with me

Yeah they say you're in a better place

Too bad it's not what I believe

'Cause a picture is all that I have

To remind me that you're never coming back

If i picture it now it just makes me sad

And right now I just wish you were here

Don't say everything's meant to be

'Cause you know it's not what I believe

Can't help but think that it should've been me

In the end I just wish you were here

Yeah they say you're in a better place

Either way I still wish you were here

('Cause they say you're in a better place)

They say you're in a better place

In the end I just wish you were here
