Wish U Were Here

I'm trying to stay strong, barely holding on
Now all of these people ask me, is it lonely at the top
I wish u were here to see the things I've done
I wish u were here, you'd be so proud of your son
And then those walks, it's just the simple things
A million dollar home but I'm barely getting by 'cause
We still do all of this but only in my dreams, I wish
But sometimes I wonder why

Or do I find comfort in all the things I got?
I wish u were here
Find out where you are, run into your arms
I miss our talks, one thing you used to say
Wrap your wings around me and whisper in my ear
I wish u were here to see the things I've done
I wish u were here to celebrate with me
I wish u were here
When things got hard, get down on your knees and pray

Well, these cars keep me moving, these planes keep me high
Everybody wants my number, everybody's calling my name
"Son walk up right and straighten your tie
Don't act no fool, I'm watching you
Tell me have you seen Estelle Marie Tallie
Why can't you still be here with me

But in the midst of all of this I can still hear you say

Wish God would've waited a couple more years for you to see
I wish u were here, you'd be so proud of your son
And now that you're gone, it still feels like you do, I wish"
"Well done, well, well done my son, well done, well done, oh"
I wish u were here, you'd be so proud of your son
I wish u were here to celebrate with me
And when I get to heaven, first thing they'll say to me
You don't want one of them good jobs to pass you by

I wish u were here to celebrate with me

I know I'll see you again but for right now rest in peace
