Here I m far away
Singing my songs in a small cafe
The weather has been fine
I'd rather be here with you
Wrote a song the other day
I played guitar and it sounds ok
But if I had my choice
I'd rather be here with you
Guess you'd say I'm really doing well
Everybody seems to like my style
Hate to call 'cos I feel this way
You feel bad and don't know what to say
Friday night when I get paid
Gonna get a train heading to la
I hear they know my name
I'd rather be here with you
Here I am far away
Singing my songs in a small cafe
The weather has been fine
I'd rather be here with you
I'd rather be here with you
I'd rather be here with you
