Wish You Were Here.

At the end of the rainbow I long
To reach to the other end
Where once I did belong
Wish you were here my childhood

Alone in the schoolyard
No friend to comfort me
Until you came along
Wish you were here my chilhood friend

In the darkness of the night
Eerie sounds of owls and crickets
Your presence my dear father
Wish you were here in my hour of need

Bruised and weary tears of childhood days
Shirt torn to shreads, dirt all over
Angry you were not, you held me with pride
Wish you were here my dear mother

My stars have fallen, my rainbow is no more
The school yard, my childhood friend,
And scary nights are only memories
My clothes are clean, and not torn
However, my heart is but shreads
Knowing that you can't be near
Oh I wish you were all here
In my solitude I am lost
For words I need to hear
Whispers of love, care so dear.


Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love
