"Wish You Were Here" by Barbara Mandrell. It was a Billboard #2 song on the Hot Country Singles chart in November, 1981. It hit #1 in Cashbox magazine that same month and the same week the "Live" album that spawned it went to #1 on the Cashbox Country Albums chart. This was the follow-up single to "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool", her biographical signature song.
I threw a wish in the well
Don't ask me, I'll never tell
If I had just one wish, only one demand
I hope he's not like me, I hope he understands
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
A wish right now
A wish right now
(And a couple other in the lyrics)
