If You Were Here With Me Tonight

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Sometimes late at night

When the shadows made by street lamps

Cast a darkened silver light

You'll drift into my mind

Reminding me of all I've lost

And all I've yet to find

So many things I know I should have told you

Now what I wouldn't give if I could hold you

If you were here with me tonight

This time I'd never let it end

We'd find those feelings we once had

And feel them all again

We'd make love stronger than before

And give each other even more

And finally find a way to make it right

If you were here with me tonight

Here with me tonight

Somehow now I see

How time can soften

Even the most painful memory

Now what we had is gone

And the sooner I believe in that

The sooner I'll go on

But love like ours

Comes just once in a lifetime

So I tell myself it just wasn't the right time

If you were here with me tonight

This time I'd never let it end

We'd find those feelings we once had

And feel them all again

We'd make love stronger than before

And give each other even more

And finally find a way to make it right

If you were here with me tonight

Here with me tonight

The minutes seem like hours

How long before the light of day

Helps to chase these thoughts away

If you were here with me tonight

This time I'd never let it end

We'd find those feelings we once had

And feel them once again

We'd make love stronger than before

And give each other even more

And finally find a way to make it right

If you were here with me tonight

If you were here with me tonight

If only you were here with me tonight

Here with me tonight
