《I Wish I Could Have Been There》歌词

[00:00:00] I Wish I Could Have Been There - John Anderson (约翰·安德森)

[00:00:08] When our baby Kate was born it was the biggest day of my life

[00:00:16] Lying there little bows in her hair

[00:00:19] In the loving arms of my wife

[00:00:22] I was the proudest papa in the USA

[00:00:30] Makin' a living on the road somewhere a thousand miles away

[00:00:37] It was a happy day but kinda' sad

[00:00:46] I wish I coulda' been there

[00:00:49] I wish I coulda' been there

[00:00:53] I wish I coulda been there for that

[00:01:01] Little Bobby hit his first home run

[00:01:03] He was the hero of the home town crowd

[00:01:08] Two to one it was a winning run

[00:01:11] Everybody was cheering loud

[00:01:16] And mommy she was smilin' saying he's a chip off of the old block

[00:01:23] But I was on the road somewhere between Memphis and Little Rock

[00:01:30] It was a happy day but kinda' sad

[00:01:38] I wish I coulda' been there

[00:01:42] I wish I coulda' been there

[00:01:46] I wish I coulda' been there for that

[00:02:05] Now Bobby and Kate are all grown up

[00:02:08] And moved away

[00:02:12] They stay in touch

[00:02:14] We're proud of the two good kids we raised

[00:02:19] And it's hard to believe we are celebrating our twenty fifth year today

[00:02:27] This party's nice but the kids aren't here

[00:02:30] At least they called to say

[00:02:35] Congratulations mom and dad

[00:02:42] I wish we could have been there

[00:02:46] I wish we could have been there

[00:02:50] I wish we could have been there for that

[00:02:56] It was a happy day but kinda' sad

[00:03:05] I wish they could have been there

[00:03:08] I wish they could have been there

[00:03:12] I wish they could have been there for that
