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 I dream 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...
|
