Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again Lyrics - Phantom Of The Opera

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"
