[Verse 1]
Can't wait to see you
I'm going to hold you, squeeze you, kiss you, love you
Yes I am, girl, oh yes I am
I really miss you
It's been a month of me not seeing you
And I'm running out of things to do
I need you, oh because
[Chorus]
I wish you here next to me
So that I can love you tenderly
I wish you were here next to me
So that I can love you (Tenderly)
[Verse 2]
I don't want to stay here much longer
'Cause I'm much too far away from home
And without you, girl, I feel all alone
I can't take this, just thinking
I'm not seeing you in a long-long time
'Cause you constantly on my mind
I need you, I miss you so
Oh, it's all because
[Chorus]
I wish you here next to me
So that I can love you tenderly
I wish you were here next to me
So that I can love you (Tenderly, I)
[Post-Chorus]
(Wish you here) Oh!
(Next to me, so that I) Girl, I miss you so
(Tenderly, I) I don't want to let you go
(Wish you here next to me)
(So that I) Girl, I miss you so
(Tenderly, I) Oh, I miss you
(Wish you here next to me) That's why I wish you were here
(So that I) Next to me, oh!
(Tenderly, I) I wish you were here next to me
(Wish you here next to me)
(So that I) Because I miss you so
(Tenderly, I) Girl, I wish you were here next to me
(Wish you here next to me)
(So that I) Because I miss you so
(Tenderly, I) Oh, I just want to hold you tight
(Wish you here next to me)
