Wish You Were Here Lyrics - Singles - Mark Wills

They kissed goodbye at the terminal gate 

She said, "You're gonna be late if you don't go" 

He held her tight, said, "I'll be alright 

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 loves 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, wish you were here"
