wishing you were with me now
praying for the times we shared together
of which I thought they'd last forever
to somehow re-appear
wondering what it would be like
if you would be there when morning's broken
too many things were left unspoken
oh why can't you be here
Chorus.
it I could only be with you
there's still so many things for us to do
the years have passed and tears still fill my eyes
every time I think about our love that never dies
wishing you were with me now
wondering why the laughing and the crying
the making fun, and never lying
just had to disappear
thinking what it would be like
to re-live the love and care you gave me
to thank you for those times you saved me
oh why can't you be here
Chorus:
if I could only be with you
there's still so many things for us to do
the years have passed and tears still fill my eyes
every time I think about our love that never dies
all I have in life
I would gladly give away
if it meant for one day
you'd be there
Chorus.
if I could only be with you
there's still so many things for us to do
the years have passed and tears still fill my eyes
every time I think of you, still hurts inside
if you could only hear me now
if I could get these words to you somehow
for a moment I would make you realise
I'm still so proud to share with you
this love that never dies
I want so much to let you know
our love will never die
