Poe – If You Were Here lyrics

Album: Haunted

Father: What is it Annie?

Daughter: I miss you.

[This is actually on track 17--you have it at the end of track 16 ("Amazed").]

If you were here
I know that you would
Truly be amazed
At what's become of what you made
If you were here
You would know how I treasured every day
How every single word you spoke
ECHOES in me like a memory of hope

When you were here
You could not feel the value that I placed
One every look that crossed your face
When you were here
I did not know just how I had embraced
All that you hid behind your face
Could not hide from me
'Cause it hid in me too

Father:
HOW ARE YOU, TIGER? THIS IS GREAT FUN, TO BE ABLE
TO TALK WITH YOU...like this.
In fact I'm going to do it more often.

Now that I'm here I hear you and wonder if maybe
you can hear yourself
Ringing in me now that YOU'RE somewhere else.

Father:
I miss you a lot

'Cause I hear your strange music gentle and true

Father: I'M SHARING WITH YOU SOME OF MY
REFLECTIONS.

Singing inside me with The best parts of you
NOW THAT I'M HERE

Father:
But I'm so proud of everything you do there
Father:
Next time I see you you'll proudly sing it back to
me

Now that I'm here

Father: Oh...

I love you...

Daughter:
It's okay, you can go now
