Lyrics

I CAN FEEL YOUR PRESENCE HERE

I hear your voice and yet your not here
I know it has been many a year
I see your face, it's ever so clear
Open my eyes and you disappear

I close my eyes, I reach out for you
Where are the dads when children need to choose
Like wandering gypsy's destined but to lose
How can I face myself and yet seek the truth

I can feel your presence here
And I hold on tight to keep it near
Like a shadow on the mirror
When the light goes out it disappears

I can feel your presence here
And I hold on tight to keep it near
Like a shadow on the mirror
When the light goes out it disappears

I see the darkness and it is near
Never to hold you is my deepest fear
You've aged so much for so very few years
Blossom my seedlings and savour your tear

I close my ears and yet I hear you
Where are the years I wished for us to go through
Like waiting for water where the windmill once blew
How can I show the way I care for you two

(Chorus)

Please say, Your mine, I'll say, That's fine
Bring us, Back home, I'm all alone

I close my eyes, I reach out for you
Where are the dads when children need to choose
Like wandering gypsy's destined but to lose
How can I face myself and yet seek the truth

(Chorus)
