The skies are clear, the water warm Lying here beneath the palms Wish I were here but I'm home Watchin' TV with Dave Central Park, the Empire State, Brooklyn Bridge, man, that'd be great But I can't get away I'd be late for TV with Dave
Wish I were here I've been gone so long I don't even know I'm gone
Wish I were here Wish I were here
The Eiffel Tower, The Golden Gate I've been everywhere except every place I'm always here with my face watchin' TV with Dave And now it's too late Accept my fate Hot Pockets 'n PBR and TV with Dave
Wish I were here I've been gone so long I don't even know I'm gone
Wish I were here Wish I were here
Wish I were here but I'm not Wish I was drunk on a yacht Or fallin' asleep with the sand in my toes But who's got the time for all that?
