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

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...
