Testo Wish U Were Here - Jamie Foxx

Testo della canzone Wish U Were Here (Jamie Foxx), tratta dall'album Unpredictable

By the time you get this letter
I might be doin better
It's kinda hard trying to survive
In all this crazy weather.
Everybody wants my number
Everybody's callin my name
But in the midst of all of this
I can still hear you say.
Son, walk upright
And straighten yo tie
You don't want one of those good jobs to pass you by
Don't act no fool, I'm watching you
And now that you're gone
It still feels like you do, I Wish
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
I wish u were here
To celebrate with me
I wish u were here.
Now all of these people ask me
"Is it lonely at the top?"
Or do I find comfort
In all the things I got
Well these cars keep me movin
These planes keep me high
A million dollar home
But I'm barely gettin by
Cause...
I miss our talks
One thing you used to say (used to say)
When things got hard (Hard on me)
Get down on your knees and pray.
And then those walks (then those walks)
Its just the simple things
We still do all of this
But only in my dreams, I wish.
I wish u were here (wish you were here with me)
To see the things I've done
I wish u were here
You'd be so proud of your son (you would be so proud of yo son)
I wish u were here (thats all I know to say, thats all I know to pray)
To celebrate with me
Is that I wish u were here.
But sometimes I wonder why
Why cant u still be here with me?
Wish God would've waited a couple more years for u to see
I'm tryna stay strong
Barely holdin on
I know I'll see u again
But for right now, rest in peace.
And when I get to heaven
First thing they'll say to me
Tell me have u seen Estelle Marie Talley?
Find out where u are
Run into your arms
Wrap yo wings around me
And whisper in my ear "well done"
I wish u were here (well done, my son, well done)
To see the things I've done
I wish u were here
You'd be so proud of your son
I wish u were here
To celebrate with me
I wish u were here
