I Wish I Could Have Been There

Song I Wish I Could Have Been There
Artist John Denver
Album Whose Garden Was This

Lyrics

[00:12.59] I wish I could have been there on the highway
[00:18.00] When the people came from miles around to see
[00:23.77] The children of the flowers come together
[00:34.86] I wish I could have been there in the sunshine
[00:40.23] With the sound of lovely laughter in the air
[00:45.75] And the music makers first began to play
[00:56.41] To hear them play
[01:02.28] And I wish I could have been there in the rain
[01:07.56] When the clouds were full of castles in the sky
[01:12.94] And I wish I could have heard the people sing
[01:18.26] As the rhytmn and the words came floating by
[01:37.71] I wish I could have been there in the starlight
[01:42.91] When the country side was quite once again
[01:48.48] And the music and the makers, the poets and the singers
[01:56.81] And the children of the flowers have all gone
[02:07.40] And I wonder will they ever return again
