I remember summers when we played

Promises we made

O how that time fades

Summers go with bitter tears I cry

Looking to the sun God, wondering why

You had to go away, go away

I wish that I could be there

I wish that I could be there

You were there with all your pretty prayers

Solace in your care

But who said life is fair

I want you to feel the way I do

Cause I can be like you

I wanna be with you, be with you

I wish that I could be there

I wish that I could be there

Oh ho, I wish that I could be there

Be there, be there

I wish that I could be there

Be there, be there

Then I'd never be alone

I wish that I could be there

Then I'd never be alone

I wish that I could be there

I could be there

I wish that I could be there

I wish that I could be there

Oh ho I wish that I could be there

Be there, be there

I wish that I could be there

Be there, be there

I wish that I could be there

I wish that I could be there
