I had a great time today with your wife
Under an awning
We had to stop there and wait for a while
Because it was raining
And we talked about you
Till the storm had passed through
You should have been there
You should have been there

It rained a long time, the kids didn't mind
Splashed on the sidewalk
And we both agreed that it was too long
Since we had a good talk
Everyone seemed OK
But then she'd never say
You should have been there
You should have been there

The stupid car stuck in the snow
Getting home too late to go
I'm not saying anything
I just thought you would want to know

When the rain stopped we checked the sky
Headed for home then
I said I would call, kissed her goodbye
Waved to your children
Then the clouds burned away
To a warm sunny day
You should have been there
You should have been there
You should have been there
