Wish You Were Here Lyrics

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 backlit canopy
With holes punched in it
I'm counting UFOs
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 worlds a roller coaster
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.

Wish You Were Here

Lead singer Brandon Boyd: "A simple and straightforward ditty about the beauty of a moment in paradise. And the desire to share that moment with someone of like mind."

Before Morning View was recorded, Incubus took weeks to set up their equipment, pictures, and stuff. Chris Kilmore had plastic turntables that he put all over the house and Mike Einziger played a record called Tahitian Island Music pretty much non-stop. (thanks, Tim - Pittsburgh, PA, for above 2)
