wish i were here

the skies are clear

the water warm

lying here beneath the palms

wish i were here but i'm home

watchin' tv with dave

central park

the empire state

brooklyn bridge

man

that'd be great

but i can't get away i'd be late for

tv with dave

wish i were here

i've been gone so long i don't even know i'm gone

wish i were here

wish i were here

the eiffel tower

the golden gate

i've been everywhere except every place

i'm always here with my face watchin'

tv with dave

and now it's too late

accept my fate

hot pockets 'n pbr and

tv with dave

wish i were here

i've been gone so long i don't even know i'm gone

wish i were here

wish i were here

wish i were here but i'm not

wish i was drunk on a yacht

or fallin' asleep with the sand in my toes

but who's got the time for all that?

wish i were here
