|
They kissed goodbye at the terminal gate |
|
She said, "You're gonna be late if you don't go" |
|
He held her tight and said, "I'll be alright |
|
And I'll call you tonight to let you know" |
|
He bought a postcard, on the front it just said heaven |
|
With a picture of the ocean and the beach |
|
And the simple words he wrote her |
|
Said he loved her and they told her |
|
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach |
|
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place |
|
Wish you were near, I wish I could touch your face |
|
The weather's nice, it's paradise, it's summertime all year |
|
And there's some folks we know, they say, "Hello" |
|
I miss you so, wish you were here |
|
She got a call that night but it wasn't from him |
|
It didn't sink in right away, "Ma'am the plane went down |
|
Our crews have searched the ground |
|
No survivors found", she heard him say |
|
But somehow she got a postcard in the mail that just said heaven |
|
With a picture of the ocean and the beach |
|
And the simple words he wrote her |
|
Said he loved and they told her |
|
How he'd love her if his arms would reach |
|
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place |
|
Wish you were near, I wish I could touch your face |
|
The weather's nice, it's paradise, it's summertime all year |
|
And there's some folks we know, they say, "Hello" |
|
I miss you so, I wish you were here |
|
The weather's nice, in paradise, it's summertime all year |
|
And all the folks we know, they say, "Hello" |
|
I miss you so, wish you were here, wish you were here |
