Here There

i wish you were here

i wish i was there

maybe i wish i was there much more so but i've been torn



and i miss you

and i wish you

everything they took away

and everything you have today

and that complicates

this feeling that

i wish you were here

i wish i was there

maybe i wish there was that much more then there is

and maybe i think one started too quick and one went unfinished



but if you could have it all

i'd take nothing more

then knowing you do

just a glimpse



no matter how much of you i miss



when i think of you here

i remember the baggage

the cement bags they dropped on your feet

and the puddle of tears you stood in

you wouldn't want to jump

and i'd like to believe i was of help

but i'd see them pushing

and then you sinking



and that kills me..



when i think of you there

i remember unfinished

the idea bulbs gather dust in a dim world

and the pile of art unfinished

you wouldn't want to stop

and they'd finally hear all you felt

that we imagined

not songs underlistened



though it's all i can hear of you now and i'll never turn it down



i wish you were here

i wish i was there

maybe i wish i was there much more so but i've been torn



and i miss you

and i wish you

everything they took away

and everything you have today

and that complicates

this feeling that

i wish you were here

i wish i was there

maybe i wish there was that much more then there is

and maybe i think one started too quick and one went unfinished



but if you could have it all

i'd take nothing more

then knowing you do

just a glimpse



no matter how much of you i miss



and god knows i miss everything



when i think of you here

i can't forget the days

the october pumpkin patch call to me

to imagine things i couldn't see

just wouldn't want to stop

there i liked to believe time was plenty still

but i'd see you fin'ly

with your bed sunken



and that was too much...but, besides the memories,



but it's all i got here in my head and knew i could never turn it down



and i miss you(hoped it would help out)

and i wish you

everything they took away

and everything you have today

and that complicates

this feeling that

i wish you were here

i wish i was there

maybe i wish there was that much more then there is

and maybe i think one started too quick and one went unfinished



but if you could have it all

i'd take nothing more

then knowing you do

just a glimpse



no matter how much of you i miss



and god knows i miss everything

i miss everything about you



here

Given the brilliance of this piece, I should like to think that it originated as a poem, intentionally, rather than a song lyric; but, in either case, it is a magnificent deployment of words in evocation of complex emotion.
