Lyrics:
Readin' old magazines
I'm on the road,
No one to save me girl
I wish you were here tonight

There's a knock on my door
Yes it's time to give another show
Oh baby, I wish you were here tonight

My love is all imagination
Just a dream, without you, to make it real
And baby I got a dream
Burnin' inside

No one else around
It's just you and I
Lovin' in the fire
That made us so right
And I wish you were here tonight

(interlude)

The TV is a friend
Cause I can choose the show
With a happy end
It never ends
Forever and ever more

If I make believe you're on the show
You're the lover that says she has to go
And I end up
Wishing you were here tonight

My love is all imagination
Just a dream, without you, to make it real
And baby I got a dream
Burnin' inside

No one else around
It's just you and I
Lovin' in the fire
That made us so right
And I wish you were here tonight
