Charles Kelley
The perspective of touring musicians missing their lovers back home through the bus rides, disorienting travel itinerary between towns, and odd hours.
Charles stated that the song, along with the entire record, was his desire to showcase his entire life to his fans and get a glimpse of how he lives...
[Verse 1: Charles Kelley]
Two hours out of New York City
Heading south again
Roadside neon, blackwater river
The thin white line never ends
[Chorus: Charles Kelley & Miranda Lambert]
Oh, I wish you were here
Sleeping on my shoulder
Breathing my air
Waking up at 2:00 AM
Stumble out of a beat-up van
Crawl into a motel bed
Oh, I wish you were here
[Verse 2: Charles Kelley & Miranda Lambert]
Thought about you all the way from New York to LA
Wherever I go, there you are
I broke my own heart for a room full of strangers
Staring at the pieces and parts
[Chorus: Charles Kelley & Miranda Lambert]
Oh, I wish you were here
Sleeping on my shoulder
Breathing my air
Moonlight pouring in
A million miles to touch your skin
Closer than we've ever been
Oh, I wish you were here
[Bridge: Charles Kelley & Miranda Lambert]
Oh, to hear your voice
Oh, to hear your smile
Oh, to hear you say "I miss you, baby"
[Chorus: Charles Kelley & Miranda Lambert]
I wish you were here
Sleeping on my shoulder
Breathing my air
Waking up at 2:00 AM
Stumble out of this beat-up van
Crawl into a motel bed (ooh)
Oh, I wish you were here
