I wish I was home with you
It’s awful lonely here in Brooklyn
I love New York, you know
There’s so much to see here, baby
But lately I don’t feel like looking
I’m tired of waking up where I don’t wanna be
This tiny room is closing in on me
You’re where I wish I was. If I had the choice
I’d be jumping a plane right now
And you’d be on your way to come pick me up
Soon as the wheels touch down
You’re where I wish I was, but it’s out of my hands
It ain’t in the cards I hold
But I thought you should know
You’re where I wish I was
You’re where I wish I was
Wish I was lying in our bed
With your head upon my shoulder
I’d lose all the circulation in my arm, honey
But I wouldn’t dream of rollin’ over
Having the blankets to myself here leaves me cold
It’s always a nightmare, not having you to hold
You’re where I wish I was. If I had the choice
I’d be jumping a plane right now
And you’d be on your way to come pick me up
Soon as the wheels touch down
You’re where I wish I was, but its out of my hands
It ain’t in the cards I hold
But I thought you should know
You’re where I wish I was
You’re where I wish I was
I’m second-guessing the profession that I chose
Times like this I think I’d rather go broke
You’re where I wish I was. If I had the choice
I’d be jumping a plane right now
And you’d be on your way to come pick me up
Soon as the wheels touch down
You’re where I wish I was, but its out of my hands
It ain’t in the cards I hold
But I thought you should know
You’re where I wish I was
You’re where I wish I was
Leave me a comment and let me know what you guys think!
Corey!!! Where is all this gold coming from?! You needed a break buddy. God put one on you that you couldn’t control and the good that’s coming from it is insane. It’s also super refreshing to see you interacting with us out here.
It’s a hell of a song it hits home for me here in South Georgia keep it coming brother
This song gave me chills bro !! How the fuck do you keep doing it 15 years later ? My girl and I danced to to At a Glance at our wedding !!
John Kidd lol. I hear ya. Much truth to your words. The time off definitely has done me good. Able to focus on what’s most important. When it comes to the music, that means just getting a good recording of an honest performance of an honest song. Will be interesting to see how long I can keep the pace up.
Adam Arsenault thanks man. Persistence in the face of failure after failure. That’s the key. Lol.
Still blasting Corey Smith after all of these years. Been here blasting since the start. He is underrated, but saying that is an under statement.
Playing this missing someone I let into my heart who couldn't be.
I can't get enough Corey Smith. I live in a pissant town in Minnesota and I have driven to Madison, Wisconsin. Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Des Moines, Iowa. And Nashville, Tennessee to watch Corey play and he never disappoints. Keep doing what you do man. Im a life long fan
Phenomenal song. You should release a tutorial or tabs!
Stumbled upon this song on spotify a few years back. So glad I did, definitely one of my new favorite song writers.
I like playing this song while I'm truck driving 🙌🏾🔥
I love this song and can’t stop listening to it
Awesome song! I am in North Carolina Highway Patrol training right now. It’s 3 months long. We only come home on Friday nights, and go back Sunday evenings. We don’t have our cell phones or any communication to family/outside world all week... this song really hit me and is what I think every night I’m away from my fiancée. Keep it coming Corey!!
Jordan Weatherman thanks for sharing. Not much more rewarding than knowing when people can relate to a song in a personal way. So very encouraging. Thank you and safe travels.
Thank you for your public service
Woooow! Simply amazing!!!
Man, oh man am I glad I came across this song tonight. I needed this some kind of bad tonight..
Dude, you're consistently killing it. Love all your music, but the acoustic stuff really hammers it home with me. Hope you bring an acoustic show to Fayetteville, AR when you get back out. Keep living the dream.
❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥 on repeat
I love this song and can’t stop listening to iy
Thought I wouldn't get to hear it tonight, but it ended up being the finale! Waited 15 years to see you man! Much love from Knoxville!
Corey you have been a big part of my life. I absolutely think you have a direct link to my soul. 21 got me hooked, but listening to "If I could do it again" on the 22 hr drive from Caro, Michigan to
Panama City Beach for my young, dumb, and full of c*m years. I'll be a lifelong fan bud
Song writing at its best! Not too shabby on that guitar as well
brilliant Corey!!!
Dude I'm out here on deployment and this song is hitting so different right now. You're amazing corey.
Hacknet oh wow. Thanks for your service. I’ve only been gone for a few weeks at a time and never dodging bullets. I can only imagine that deployment takes homesick to a new level. Glad the song resonates though. Get home safely. Thanks.
Thank you for your service from one veteran to another!! God Bless you and keep you safe!!
thank you for your service! I hope you get home safely to your family
From one .. "Semper Gumpy" Respect from the Marines .. #yut
Thank u for service come back home safe !!
I love this!!! Listen to it every day on Spotify
Thank you!
Been listening to this man for 10 years or more. Music just moves you. Damn good tunes
Knocking it out again, man! These new tunes are really fucking good and I'm not just saying that. They've all been vibing very hard and in pretty constant rotation since thsyve been released. This one kinda reminds me of "Give Me Healing " which is a favorite of mine. Also, between being a touring drummer and a full time commercial window installer, I know what it's like to just want to be home with your wife and kids. I can totally relate. Seems there's never enough time for everything and everyone. Love the new stuff, Corey. Please keep them coming!
This is an instant classic of yours, Corey
Amazing song, every song you write shows who you are as a person on a deep level. Amazing music man, god bless you. See you next week
Sitting at work and really feeling this song right now.
Please tab this out my man, this ones hittin’ hard
I’m a minister 1200 miles away from the woman I love brother it gets so hard but this song has carried us along now she listens to ya brother just thanks Corey my life it’s like you’ve played it through your songs man
Great song! Love it!! Thank you!!
Great song! Thank you for making great music!
Gorgeous
Man. I'm starting to think this surgery you had was a secret blessing because I can't get enough of every video you've posted. Absolutely great song and love that gorgeous Taylor. Your next stop closest to Tallahassee is where I'll be!
Chris G Thanks. Definitely a blessing in disguise. Given me a chance to get back to fundamentals. Just getting the songs out there instead of stressing of production and some imaginary promotional timeline. It’s liberating.
Corey Smith you can tell, brother. Keep releasing em!
Corey, I’ve always loved your music. In many ways it helped shape me and find myself. With that said you released this song right before I got married. Me and my wife listened to this during the week of our honeymoon and continue to dance to it. Thank you for being such a huge part of my life.
Corey your music is so impactful, you are by far my favorite singer! Thank you for being such a great musician!
My favorite singer of all time brother!
Good shit
Corey Smith! That's really good.
Dude, you have a very talent that speaks and I can't get enough!! I don't have the words to say how much I love your music and I listen to it all!! You have an amazing ability that you are blessed with!! Thank you for another look inside your heart!!! Looking forward to more!!!
Eric Griffin thanks for the kind words. Not sure if it’s talent as much as stubborn persistence in the face of repeated failure though. Lol. The real blessing is having people to share the music with. Truly. Thanks.
Love it... took a trip to North Georgia over the weekend, and believe i covered every song you have on Spotify... keep 'em coming..
Amazing! As always! Thank you for sharing your music and passion with us!
Great song! The songwriting you posses never ceases to amaze me brother! Can’t wait for the next one!
Damn it man, you did it again! Another awesome song that makes me so thankful for my beautiful wife! I love it.
Great Writing!
Another beautiful song Mr. Smith! I’ll be waiting to buy it on iTunes
mattanthony0814 thanks. Should hit itunes a week from Friday.
This song holds so much, you are an amazing performer! Thanks for sharing your talents
This is exactly how I feel on this deployment…. Headed home soon though!
Fantastic. Loving these acoustics, raw musical talent. Still got it Corey!
Wishing I was in Georgia right now!
Yes! Such a great song!! As a career Soldier this sums it all up! Thanks for this greatness! Sharing on my social media now!!
doctorres112 thanks for your service. Glad it resonates. 🙏🏻
Corey Smith Was this the one you played but didn’t finish on your final show during the early 2019 acoustic tour??
Thank you for your service and may God Bless you!!
Corey Smith Nevermind! My wife said this is not the song but instead it was about a 2 sided coin or something. Perhaps we will get that in a future album!!
Eric Griffin It’s my pleasure brother!!
This song is absolutely beautiful brother!
Is it possible to get the chords from you.. I'd like to learn this and a few more
you're where I wish I was. Instantly fell in love with it. Listening from Texas. Get to know Texas on fb/Instagram
beautiful song corey.love your voice and guitar playing.plz , do a rendition of sweet little boy too.love from india
Vishal Mohan thanks. Will do my best. Cheers.
Never a disappointment! Good song brother
On one of you live podcasts will you sing Stand our Ground please? That song is very sentimental to me
That guitar has a really nice sound. I bet it is perfect for your more blues-ish songs.
Ed sheeran came out with bad habits. Who cares. This is my favorite song this year. On repeat like all year long. Always resort to it. Great tune brotha
Thank you!
Hey Corey, I love this song man, really good hook and meleody! Answer me this....I follow a reaction channel called "Lost in Vegas" on youtube. They have a Patreon as well with like over 5000 members. They are doing a project that consist of reacting to underground less know country artist to give them more exposure and I wanted to send them one of your songs. I wouldnt catogorize you as "Country" per say because you are much more diverse then that , but I think you have enough of that flavor to be in the mix. Sorry for the long back story, but I wanted to ask you what song you would pick to send to someone who has never heard you? I wanted to show off your singing ability and writing ability because I obviously think both are incredible. I also like when you do the rap stuff too mixed in but that was mostly on your older stuff....so...anyway....what do you think? haha
Brother I'm moving to g.a. soon I'd really like to meet up with ya brother if u would be interested
Awesome !!! I’m an aspiring singer any advice ? @corey smith
