Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again
from Phantom of the Opera
You are once my one companion
you are all that mattered
You are once a friend and father,
then my world was shattered Wishing you were somehow here again
wishing you were somehow near
Sometimes it seemed if I just dreamed
somehow you would be here Wishing I could hear your voice again
knowing that I never would
Dreaming of you won't help me to do
all that you dreamed I could Passing bells and sculpted angels
cold and monumental
seem, for you the wrong companions -
you are warm and gentle
Too many years fighting back tears
Why can't the past just die ? Wishing you were somehow here again
knowing we must say goodbye
Try to forgive, teach me to live
give me the strength to try No more memories, no more silent tears
No more gazing across the wasted years
Help me say goodbye!
