Lyrics Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again - André Rieu

You were once my one companion .. .
You were all that mattered .. .
You were 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 were 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.
Help me say goodbye!
