Lyrics
[verse]
The tide comes in and pulls the sand from underneath
Just like the way you left, just like a thief
I'm standing on this shoreline, salt is in my eyes
Watching how the water meets the sky
[verse]
I traded all the noise for open air
Thought the quiet here might ease this weight I bear
But every wave that breaks along the shore
Sounds like something I've heard before
[chorus]
And I wish you were here to see this view
I wish you were here, I do, I do
The sky's on fire, the world feels wide and new
But it's missing something, missing you
[verse]
I used to chase the crowd, the noise, the light
Now I'm chasing something calmer, something right
But even peace can feel like an empty room
When there's no one here to share the view
[chorus]
And I wish you were here to see this view
I wish you were here, I do, I do
The sky's on fire, the world feels wide and new
But it's missing something, missing you
[bridge]
Maybe someday you'll stand where I'm standing now
Maybe someday I'll show you how
The water holds the sky, the sky holds the sun
And I'm holding on till you come
[chorus]
And I wish you were here to see this view
I wish you were here, I do, I do
The sky's on fire, the world feels wide and new
But it's missing something, missing you
