Wish You Were Here by The World of Birds Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ah Oh
I’m missing home
Nothing but the cash
In the wallet I own
Every other bob
With the new iPhone
Time to stick a name on my uniform
You could live in the rain
Well out here everybody’s living the same
Ain't that a kick in the balls
My dad told me I was destined for fame
[Pre-Chorus]
We’ve got nothing to fear
I’m laughing at the world
Come and look over here
And we’ve got nothing to fear
Life’s only a parade
God I wish you were here
[Chorus]
Our house I'll miss the most
Walk it up and down with a girl I know
White picket fence and the miniature rose
Well I don’t care cos there’s no one there
X2
Well I don’t care cos there’s no one there
X2
[Verse 2]
Ah Oh
So you’re alone
Nice guy at the bar
Wanna take you home
Well understand that every man
Is second hand
In your old clothes
And won’t you come to the game
When I play everybody’s calling your name
And look there over the wall
Your neighbours got a pool that he can’t even afford
[Pre-Chorus]
We’ve got nothing to fear
I’m laughing at the world
Come and look over here
And we’ve got nothing to fear
Life’s only a parade
God I wish you were here
[Chorus]
And our house I'll miss the most
Walk it up and down with the girl I know
White picket fence and the miniature rose
Well I don’t care cos there’s no one there
X2
[Bridge]
Missing the part where it all collapsed
There’s no one here, there’s no one left
Missing the part where it all collapsed
There’s no one here, there’s no one left
Missing the point where it all collapsed
There’s no one here, there’s no one left
We’ve got nothing to fear
I’m laughing at the world
Come and look over here
We’ve got nothing to fear
Life’s only a parade
God I wish you were here
Ah Oh
I’m missing home
Nothing but the cash
In the wallet I own
Every other bob
With the new iPhone
Time to stick a name on my uniform
You could live in the rain
Well out here everybody’s living the same
Ain't that a kick in the balls
My dad told me I was destined for fame
[Pre-Chorus]
We’ve got nothing to fear
I’m laughing at the world
Come and look over here
And we’ve got nothing to fear
Life’s only a parade
God I wish you were here
[Chorus]
Our house I'll miss the most
Walk it up and down with a girl I know
White picket fence and the miniature rose
Well I don’t care cos there’s no one there
X2
Well I don’t care cos there’s no one there
X2
