Kristin Chenoweth - Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again Lyrics

(Song from the musical Phantom of the Opera)

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

Kristin Chenoweth Lyrics

I Could Have Danced All Night
Maybe This Time
My Coloring Book
Bring Him Home
Fathers and Daughters
Hard Times Come Again No More
Upon This Rock
Over the Rainbow
Popular
For Good
Little Sparrow
Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again
All the Things You Are
No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)
I Was Here
