[1st Verse]
Gone away are the golden days
They're just a page in my diary
So here I am, a utopian citizen, I'm
I'm still convinced, there's no such thing as idealism
[Pre-Chorus]
Well memories that followed with me like a shadow now
And I'm dreaming, 'cause I've already suffered the fever of disbelief, hey, yeah
[Chorus]
But I've seen your act and I know all the facts
I'm still in love with who I wish you were, yeah
And it ain't hard to see who you are underneath
But I'm still in love with who I wish you were
I wish you were here, yeah, hey
[2nd Verse]
I was true as the sky is blue
But I couldn't soon say the same for you
So now I find denial in my eyes
I'm mesmerized by the, the picture that's in my mind, now, oh, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
So, tell me when I'll finally see your shallow heart
For what it is, yeah, 'cause I don't want to keep on believing in illusions, no, no, no
[Chorus]
But I've seen your act and I know all the facts
I'm still in love with who I wish you were, yeah
And it ain't hard to see who you are underneath
But I'm still in love with who I wish you were
I wish you were here
[Bridge]
Sometimes I can't explain, and I'm so sorry that I can't
I'll try to concentrate, on your true identity
[Chorus]
'Cause I've seen your act and I know all the facts
I'm still in love with who I wish you were
And it ain't hard to see who you are underneath
But I'm still in love with who I wish you were
I've seen your act and I know all the facts
I'm still in love with who I wish you were, yeah
And it ain't hard to see who you are underneath
But I'm still in love with who I wish you were, now
[Outro]
I wish you were here, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
I wish you were here, yeah, oh, oh, oh boy
I wish you were here
I wish you were here, yeah
I wish you were here
