Wished You Were There

Keaggy

We had a happy grand reunion
Hadn't played together in nine years
But you know we were the special friends that night
And excited to the point of tears

We took a few by surprise
Unannounced yet still accepted
We performed the Carnegie Hall last set
And gave them more than we expected

But Stacey never mentioned a thing
About our reappearance in the Plain Dealer
And you know we even had a better second night
When we gathered at the Civic Theater
Wished you were there

I can still remember their faces
Blessed be forever ties that bind
And you know we were each other's friends that night
All our differences were left behind

We heard the songs fill the stage
Fill the hall awaken our memory
And I know there was some old rock and roll
Born in the early seventies

But Stacey never mentioned a thing
About our reappearance in the Plain Dealer
And you know we even had a better second night
When we gathered at the Civic Theater
Wished you were there
