Wellington

I wish I was in Wellington, the weather's not so good

The wind it cuts right through you and it rains more than it should

But I'd be there tomorrow, if I only could

Oh I wish I was in Wellington

I wish I was in Wellington - the bureaucracy

The suits and the briefcases along Lambton Quay

The Harbour City Capital, the lights beside the sea

Oh I wish I was in Wellington

It just isn't practical, you down in the capital

And me at the other end of the island

The problem is the gap - between us on the map

And there's no easy way to reconcile it

I wish I was in Wellington, the cafes and the bars

The music and the theatre, and the old Cable Car

And you can walk everywhere 'cause nowhere's very far

Oh I wish I was in Wellington

Oh I wish...

Oh I wish I was in Wellington, the wind it cuts right through

I wish I was in Wellington, there's so much more to do

I wish I was in Wellington, and you wish I was too

Oh I wish I was in Wellington, 'cause then I'd be with you

Oh I wish I was in Wellington, 'cause then I'd be with you
