Story Behind The Song
In the old days, loved ones could meet you at the gate when the plane landed. The fact that this doesn't happen any longer was the inspiration for this song. When a person travels a lot, the newness of welcoming you home seems to fade. In the case of this song, there is no one there to welcome him home.
Song Description
A well traveled business man is wishing he had someone to welcome him home after his long trips.

Lyrics
Wishing Love Could Be That Way
When I'm on the Road
I think about her all day long
Yearning for her tender touch
Wishing love could be that way
When I go to sleep
I dream about her every night
Hold her tight in my arms
Wishing love could be that way
I wake up every morning
A smile upon my face
How my heart is longing
For her warm embrace
When I get back home
I see her waiting at my door
Standing there just like a dream
Wishing love could be that way
Solos
I wake up every morning
A smile upon my face
How my heart is longing
For her warm embrace
When I get back home
I see her waiting at my door
I must admit she's my fantasy
Wishing love could be that way
