As is often the case with classic tunes like this, there have been different explanations given to the meaning of “Wish You Were Here”. The most commonly-accepted understanding is that it is intended to serve as a shoutout to Syd Barrett (1946-2006). Syd Barrett was one of the founding members of Pink Floyd who was unceremoniously dropped from the band (or quit, depending on which way you look at it) in 1968. This transpired due to mental-health problems he developed via drug abuse.

Meanwhile one of the song’s writer, Roger Waters, has rather contended that the lyrics reflect his own mood at the time he wrote them. And said disposition, as illustrated in the title, is characterized by a sense of withdrawal from himself. He has apparently made this assertion despite also stating that the lyrics were derived from a poem he wrote centered on Syd Barrett.

And yet another explanation given is that this song is actually reflective of Pink Floyd themselves feeling detached from their profession at the time. Or stated differently, they may not have been heartily vested in the creation of the album this song is featured on.
