Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again
|
A GRAVEYARD
|
(A mausoleum with hanging moss. In the centre a
|
pyramid of skulls in front of a cross.)
|
CHRISTINE
|
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
|
