I Wish You Could Be Here

Looking from my window At the freshly fallen snow That sparkles as it tumbles Upon the street below And the crackle of the fire Is laughing in my ear And the room is warm and sleepy I wish you could be here Sundays in this town There's not a lot for me to do I've been listening to some records But my thoughts have turned to you I try to read the paper But the words aren't very clear And I know there's something missing I wish you could be here I wish you could be here I keep listening for your footsteps Or your key turned in the door I sure could use your company But we've been through that before The winter's going to last A long time this year I've got lots of empty time to kill I wish you could be here I wish you could be here I wish you could be here
