Song lyrics

Send "Wish You Were Here" ringtones to your cell

I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind, pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy
Happy

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were...here

I lay my head onto the sand
The sky resembles a back-lit canopy with holes punched in it
I'm counting UFO's, I signal them with my lighter
And in this moment i am happy
Happy

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were...here
Wish you were here

The world's a rollercoaster
And I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care
But my hands are busy in the air, saying

I wish you were here
I wish you were...
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were...here
Wish you were here

5 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Durring this last summer I was having a hard time because my boyfriend was in Alaska and thats a million miles away from me. I remember going to the beach one week and when I heard that song I was in ahh, because it was my fellings... right then and there! Incubus has the trait to sing about things that can relate to many people. My hat is off to them.

3 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal as far as lyrics go, i think this is my favorite incubus song.everytime i listen to it, i think of someone stranded on an island looking up at the sky and wishing for someone they love who's not alive to be with them- someone to share their life with. if you think about it, it kind of does make sense, but i don't know thats just me. brandon boyd is sexy
