Lyrics for I Wish You Were Here by Simple Minds:

Footsteps, I can hear footsteps in the hall

I hear footsteps, seems like I’ve been through this before

Some time has come now, some time has passed

But things still look the same

Is heaven all above, and paradise below

And the questions still remain

Ooh, can we see you?

Ooh, are we near you?

How could you disappear out of here?

I wish for something, I wish you were here

Footsteps, I can hear footsteps in the hall

I hear footsteps, it seems like I’ve been through this before

Well we loved you then, I guess we always will

We love you still from here

Birds of a feather always stay together

And never separate, no fear

Ooh, can we see you?

Ooh, are we near you?

How could you disappear out of here?

I wish for something, I wish for something

I wish you were here, I wish you were here

I wish you well

Footsteps, I can hear footsteps in the hall

I hear footsteps, seems like I’ve been through this before

If all the world was turning blue and gold

Like through your eyes so clear

The time has come to celebrate our past

And crystalize this sphere

Ooh, can we see you?

Ooh, are we near you?

How can you disappear out of here?

I wish for something

Ooh, can we see you?

Ooh, are we near you?

How can you disappear out of here?

I wish for something

I wish you were here, I wish you were here

I wish you well

There will come a day

Oh some day our day will come

Our day will come, our day will come

Lyrics for 20th Century Promised Land by Simple Minds:

Stories came like the wind
Joining every bridge in the wind
Ringing out footsteps
Calling out stell-heels
I give voice
I give breath
Count out evenings and stars
How fast can these things move on
Taking roots back to yourself
And the reason for fear was moving on
And on
Some time
Great times
Troubled time
Fire for the times
Ringing out footsteps
Calling out steel-heels
Promised land
Great times in commotion
Here come every day
It only lasts an hour
Unhappy the land that has no heroes
No! unhappy the land that needs heroes
And the reason for fear was moving on
The speed of light was moving on
Don’t cry
Tears are only wasted waters
Some say god her only loves the proud
Be damned on luck
But not dishearted
Nothing to prove
And nothing to present
I give voice
I give breath
Catching winds in my hand
My hand
Some times
Great times
Catching wind in my hand
My hand
Some times
Great times
Troubled times
Fire for the times
Ringing out footsteps
Calling out steel-heels
Promised land
Great times in commotion
Here comes every dat
It only lasts an hour
Unhappy the land that has no heroes
No! unhappy the land that needs heroes
I’ll call you out
I’ll scream you out
And i don’t care if you’re afraid
When city sounds invade the air
Catch the wind in their hands
Promised land
Catch the wind in their hands
Promised lands
Promised lands
Promised lands
Great times in commotion

Neon lights

Shimmering neon lights

And at the fall of night

This city’s made of light

Lyrics for Dolphins by Simple Minds:

Say that
Say it’s wise
They say that
It´s the only time
To reach for what remains
To look o’er what’s the same
Dolphins swim around
And dolphins drag me down
Drag me down
Say that, it’s the truth
There’s an ocean
Right in front of you
And dolphins, hit the sound
And when dolphins circle around
And if it seems so
Like the world juts in
Those dolphins drag me down
Drag me down
Say that, say it´s wise
Say that, that it’s the only vice
Yet you say so what remains ?
And look so uncertain
And dolphins look around
And those dolphins drag me down
Drag me down
And so the world juts in
Those dolphins drag me down
Drag me down
