[Verse]
2001 and I feel the silence in my world
1981 and I feel the silence in my world
It's '78, man
How I wish
How I wish you were here
1997 and I feel the silence in my world
2011 and I feel the silence in my world
It's '78, man

[Chorus]
How I wish
How I wish you were here
Just you and I, my friend
After so many years
Swimming around
One of us got flushed down

[Outro]
How I wish
How I wish you were here
How I wish
How I wish you were here
