The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I wish I could have been there on the highway

When the people came from miles around to see

The children of the flowers come together

I wish I could have been there in the sunshine

With the sound of lovely laughter in the air

And the music makers first began to play

To hear them play

And I wish I could have been there in the rain

When the clouds were full of castles in the sky

And I wish I could have heard the people sing

As the rhytmn and the words came floating by

I wish I could have been there in the starlight

When the country side was trying once again

And the music and the makers the poets and the singers

And the children of the flowers have all gone
