They're not making the skies as blue this year - wish you were here As blue as they used to when you were near - wish you were here And the mornings don't seem as new Brand-new as they did with you Wish you were here, wish you were here, wish you were here
Someone's painting the leaves all wrong this year - wish you were here And why did the birds change their song this year - wish you were here They're not shining the stars as bright They've stolen the joy from the night Wish you were here, wish you were here, wish you were here
