Saw you in a dream last night
Next to Alamo Square
It was five minutes to midnight
Looked like you'd cut your hair
Woke up wishin' it was real
And that you were still around
Instead of just a memory
That couldn't make a sound
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
Made another milestone
And your boys are gettin' by
Flyin' through the canyons
Almost gave up askin' why
You know she's settled down now
Haven't crossed paths in too long
It's been a little more miss than hit
So try to sing along
I wish you were here
Wish you were here
Well I'm out here in the rain
But the forecast's lookin' clear
The drops still look the same whether
Or not they're rain or tear
I caught myself forgetting
Can't believe it's been this long
Still a little more miss than hit
So let's all sing along
I Wish you were here
Wish you were here
Well you never gave me shit
For how much I loved Rod McKuen
If my wish came true
And you were here right now
Wonder what we might be doin
I Wish you were here
I Wish you were here
