Lyrics
Refrain:
Wishing you were here,
Yet I know it's not to be.
Wishing you were here,
I'm left with only memories.
Verse:
I hear you calling,
I hear your voice in the night.
I try to answer
But I'm awakened by the light.
Refrain:
Wishing you were here,
Yet I know it's not to be.
Wishing you were here,
I'm left with only memories.
Verse:
I miss you so much,
At night I cry myself to sleep.
It's hard to go on
When the hurt runs so deep.
Refrain:
Wishing you were here,
Yet I know it's not to be.
Wishing you were here,
I'm left with only memories.
Bridge:
So many years,
So many times together,
I guess I thought
You'd be here forever.
Verse:
Looking at your picture,
Your smile forever in place.
No longer suffering,
Your time's been both blessed and graced.
Refrain:
Wishing you were here,
Yet I know it's not to be.
Wishing you were here,
I'm left with only memories.
