From a cold steel rail? Hot ashes for trees? Did they get you to trade Your heroes for ghosts? Swimming in a fish bowl Hot air for a cool breeze? Do you think you can tell? Blue skies from pain The same old fears Songwriters: David Jon Gilmour, Roger Waters Heaven from Hell How I wish, how I wish you were here A smile from a veil? Year after year We're just two lost souls Running over the same old ground Can you tell a green field Cold comfort for change? So, so you think you can tell What have we found? Publisher: ARTEMIS MUZIEKUITGEVERIJ B.V. And did you exchange Wish you were here A walk on part in a war For a lead role in a cage?

My favorite part is when, after the first chorus, the slide guitar comes in to back up that familiar riff. I get chills every single time I hear it. Just magical!

I like how Pink Floyd is on my Tool station because honestly if you listen to Tool (even though Floyd and Tool are so different from each other) you can see in a lot of Tool songs that they were heavily influenced by Pink Floyd. Amazing...

I think this song can speak to those that really listen to it. It brings back those vivid memories of a very great friend of mine; a brother. It almost makes me feel like he's gone, though I still keep close contact...it definitely stikes a deep chord of our good times! Here's to those good times!! Ching, ching!
