【Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again】

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!
