Wish You Were Here (You Ought To Be Here) (Groove-A-Thon 1976)

Текст песни Isaac Hayes - Wish You Were Here (You Ought To Be Here) (Groove-A-Thon 1976)

[Verse 1]
What can I say, what can I do?
Another day that I spend missing you
Like a portrait with no face
A dancer with no grace
Every night I pray
That love shows you the way
I wish you were here
You ought to be here

[Verse 2]
I'm sorry that I hurt
I've paid a thousand times
Your absence is enough to
Make me lose my mind
Baby, can't you tell?
I've learned my lesson well
I'm fighting back the tears
The pain is so severe
[Chorus]
I wish you were here, baby
You ought to be here

[Verse 3]
Remember how we laughed
And how we played every day
You promised your love would last
And that it would always be that way
Let's try and recapture
The good times we once had
The fun and the laughter
I need your love so bad
With love in my heart
I promised to do my part
I'm fighting back the tears
The pain is so severe, baby

[Chorus]
I wish you were here, yeah
You ought to be here
I wish you were here (Come back)
You ought to be here (Come back)
I wish you were here (Come back)
You ought to be here (Come back)
(Wish you were here) Sorry I hurt you (Come back)
(Ought to be here) Didn't mean to do you harm (Come back)
(Wish you were here) Come back baby, come back
(Come back)
(Ought to be here) We've been apart much too long
(Come back)
I wish you were here (Come back)
You ought to be here (Come back)
I wish you were here (Come back)
You ought to be here (Come back)
Yeah baby, I wish you were here (Come back)
Come back baby, you ought to be here (Come back)
I wish you were here (Come back)
[Outro]
You ought to be here (Come back)
I wish you were here (Come back)
You ought to be here (Come back)
