Missionary for Money - Wish You Were Here Lyrics

I set my eyes upon the unattainable
(Couldn't hold on, couldn't withstand it)
What seemed like years were wasted
I thought that we could make it
(Couldn't hold on, couldn't withstand it)
If I had never tried, I'd hate myself for leaving you behind
(Couldn't hold on, couldn't withstand it)
But I did anyway

We took a dive into that hotel pool
With all our clothes on
(Do you remember what I told you)
Under the moon and all of the stars
I wonder if you were nervous too
(Do you remember what I told you)
You told me you'd been hurt before
And I said I'd be the one for sure
(Do you remember what I told you)
And I lied to you

Our time is up, it's over
Couldn't be your hero, your soldier
(Gone is the past, time marches forward)
The promise to stay forever
Crumbled before us, you deserve better
(Gone is the past, time marches forward)
On the way home, I'll drive, into the night
With my eyes overhead
And my eyes pointed towards the sky
