Song Lyrics for Wish I Was There

Man, I was born a little late for the magic in the mud
Where the fields were filled with music and the sky dripped peace and love
I swear I hear those echoes when I’m lightin’ up at night
Like the world slows down around me and the colors all feel right

Tie-dye dreams swirl around in my mind
Feel like I’m travelin’ back in time

Oh, I wish I was there at Woodstock
Passin’ that good smoke ’round the crowd
Feelin’ that heartbeat thunder
With the music shakin’ the ground
Yeah, I’d light it up with the greats
Let the world fade out somewhere
Oh, I wish I was there
Yeah, I wish I was there

I picture muddy bare feet dancin’, people smilin’ everywhere
Strangers turnin’ into family just from breathin’ the same air
When I spark another memory, it’s a window to the past
And for a moment I can feel it
Man, I swear I hear them laugh

Peace signs rise up inside of my mind
Feels like I’m travelin’ back in time

Oh, I wish I was there at Woodstock
Passin’ that good smoke ’round the crowd
Feelin’ that heartbeat thunder
With the music shakin’ the ground
Yeah, I’d light it up with the greats
Let the world fade out somewhere
Oh, I wish I was there
Yeah, I wish I was there

Maybe someday I’ll find a place
Where the world slows down like those old tapes
Where the smoke drifts up and the peace comes in
Feels like home again

Oh, I wish I was there at Woodstock
Passin’ that good smoke ’round the crowd
Feelin’ that heartbeat thunder
With the music shakin’ the ground
Yeah, I’d light it up with the greats
Let the world fade out somewhere
Oh, I wish I was there
Yeah, I wish I was there
