REDNEX: WISH YOU WERE HERE
Wish you were here
Me, oh my countryman
Wish you were here
Wish you were here
Don’t you know the stove is getting colder
And I miss you like Hell
And I’m feeling blue
Wish you were here
Me, oh my countryman
Wish you were here
Wish you were here
Don’t you know the stove is getting colder
And I miss you like Hell
And I’m feeling blue
I got feelings for you, babe
Do you still feel the same
From the first time I laid my eyes on you
I felt joy of living, I saw Heaven in your eyes
In your eyes
Wish you were here
Me, oh my countryman
Wish you were here (I wish you were here)
Wish you were here
Don’t you know the stove is getting colder
And I miss you like Hell
And I’m feeling blue
I miss your laugh, I miss your smile
I miss everything about you
Every second’s like a minute
Every minute’s like a day
When you’re far away
Wish you were here
The stove is getting colder, baby
I wish you were here
Wish you were here
A battlefield of love and fear
And I wish you were here
I got feelings for you, babe
From the first time I laid my eyes on you
Wish you were here
Me, oh my countryman
Wish you were here (I wish you were here)
Wish you were here
Don’t you know the snow is getting colder
And I miss you like Hell
And I’m feeling blue
