Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again

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 dream
Somehow you would be here

Wishing I could hear your voice again
Knowing that I never could
Dreaming of you won't help me to do
All that I dreamed I could

Three long years I've knelt in silence
Held your memory near me
Three long years of murmured sorrow
Willing you to hear me

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
