If You Were Here Songtext
von Poe

(What is it, Annie?)
(I miss you)

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
On every look that crossed your face
When you were here
I did not know just how I had embraced
All that you hid behind you face
Could not hide from me 'cause it hid in me too


(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
(I miss you a lot)
′Cause I hear your strange music, gentle and true
(I′m sharing with you some of my reflections)

Singing inside me with the best parts of you
Now that I'm here
(But I′m so proud of everything you do there, love you most)
I hope somewhere you hear them too
(Next time I see you, you'll proudly sing it back to me)
Now that I′m here
(Oh)
I love you

(It's okay, you can go now)
