I wish I was there
Chilling on a hammock, with a drink in my hand
While dipping my toes near the shore and feeling the sunlight touch my skin
I wish I was there
Enjoying the sunset, riding in a hot air balloon, feeling the wind over my face
[Chorus]
Oh, I’m a citizen of somewhere else
A traveler inside my mind
Leaving every "here and now" behind
To find the version of me I haven't met yet
In a sunset I haven't seen
Living in the spaces in between
Every "I wish I was there"
Is just a silent, secret prayer
To finally feel at home anywhere
I wish I was there
Riding a bike along the most iconic bridges, tasting that sweet brownie that hopefully makes me a bit content in life
I wish I was there
Observing the blue and white architectural structures while on a stroll, noticing of how blue the sea is to my left and feeling of just jumping right in
I wish I was there
Waiting for that first snowflake to touch my nose, throwing that perfectly made snowball in my hand and making snow angels on the ground
[Chorus]
Oh, I’m a citizen of somewhere else
A traveler inside my mind
Leaving every "here and now" behind
To find the version of me I haven't met yet
In a sunset I haven't seen
Living in the spaces in between
Every "I wish I was there"
Is just a silent, secret prayer
To finally feel at home anywhere
[Outro]
I always wish of someplace far from where I am
To daydream of places I hoped I could go someday
To escape the reality I am currently in
And wishing I was there...
I wish I was there.
