Paul Simon - I Wish You Could Be Here

Looking from my window
On the freshly fallen snow
That sparkles as it tumbles
Upon the street below
And the crackle of the fire
Is laughin’ 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 list’nin’ to some records
But my thoughts return to you
Oh I try to read the paper
But the words aren’t very clear
And I know there’s something missin’
I wish you could be here

I keep listnin’ for your footsteps
Or your key turned in the door
I sure could use your company
But we’ve been through that before
I think the winter’s gonna last
A long time this year
I’ve got lots of empty time to kill
I wish you could be here
