I Wish I Was Here Lyrics

I Wish I Was Here lyrics

I hope you don't listen to me

I don't always say what I'm thinking

And sometimes I'll tell you, 

What I think you want to hear

Most times I just talk to make a sound



I wish I was here

I wish I was anywhere



I broke down the door to my house

When I lost the keys

Everything I have 

Has been lost, or stolen



Even my good friends

Have stopped coming around

Since I started wearing my dragon hat



I wish I was here

I wish I was anywhere

Where i might feel

Where I might reach out to you



There's a dead heart

Lyin' on my doorstep

I used to think I'd pick it up

And use it once in a while

Now I step around 

I step around it 

And try not to notice 

Well I see it, but mostly I don't care



I wish I was here

I wish I was anywhere

Where I might feel

Where I might reach out for you

But I think you know now

It's just not that easy



Well I hope, you don't follow me down

Cuz I never look, where I'm jumping

And everyone comes along

And winds up dead or broken

But my rubber legs always seem to save me



I wish I was here

I wish I was anywhere

Where I might feel 

Where I might see you

And I think I know now

That I just don't get better

I'd rather die

Than say I was wrong



I hope you don't listen to me

Cuz I never think before speaking
