Lyrics

[00:04] You were once my one companion
[00:11] You were all that mattered
[00:19] You were once a friend and father
[00:26] Then my world was shattered
[00:35] Wishing you were somehow here again
[00:41] Wishing you were somehow near
[00:48] Sometimes it seemed if I just dreamed
[00:55] Somehow you would be here
[01:01] Wishing I could hear your voice again
[01:09] Knowing that I never would
[01:15] Dreaming of you won't help me to do
[01:22] All that you dreamed I could
[01:29] Pulsing bells and sculptured angels
[01:35] Cold and monumental
[01:41] Seemed for you the wrong companions
[01:48] You were warm and gentle
[02:10] Too many years fighting back tears
[02:17] Why can't the past just die?
[02:23] Wishing you were somehow here again
[02:31] Knowing we must say good bye
[02:39] Try to forgive teach me to live
[02:45] Give me the strength to try
[02:51] No more memories no more silent tears
[02:58] No repeating of lost and wasted years
[03:12] Help me say good bye
