Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again Lyrics - Sarah Brightman
Review The Song (5)
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
Help me say goodbye
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
Help me say goodbye

This song has a lot of meaning to me because although it sounds petty to say this it reminds me of losing my mother, she's not really gone but she is nilonger a person I can look up to . After th divorce of my parents at the age of 8 I could no longer be a child, my mom lost all sense of responsibility and relied on me to do everything, and my dad would vent to me about how bad everything was, so this song reminds me of loosing my childhood
Beautiful and meaningful | Reviewer: Heartbroken | 9/6/10
When I first heard this song by Sarah Brightman I could relate to it by the death of my father. Now recently losing my sister it also fits in with how I'm feeling and the words are so apt. It made me cry first time round, 2nd, 3rd 4th and more. A beautiful and heart wrenching song...thank you Mr Webber x
Love this song. | Reviewer: unknownpersonality | 11/7/09
I love this song. It's so beautiful and sad. This song makes me think of my grandma, who died a couple months ago, so now this song makes me cry, but that's okay.
It seems like music helps me express my emotions better than words can.
Very touching and emotional ... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/11/05
I have lost both my parents a few years ago, and on hearing this song, just seem to jolt my memories back to them even though I try hard to forget the pain of losing and try not to cry ..... Well, this song sure made me cry like a big baby everytime I play it. heheheh. But in a way, it helps me to overcome and to carry on my life ..... a lovely song sung by a wonderful singer!
A Beautiful Song... | Reviewer: Angel | 2/11/05
After losing my father in May 2004... my mum and I went to see the Phantom of The Opera movie 2 weeks ago and when Christine sang this song in the graveyard of her father, I really could relate to every word she sang and shed a few tears of my own.
This is a really beautiful song..!
