Beloved

Here I am, I'm right here

Oh, I wish you could feel me standing so close

I'm right beside you, dear

I fly around this old man house

I float through our walls

I scream and I call

While I watch you without me

All I feel, all I am now

Is this love I have for you?

Each night it's you

You I lay beside

Close my eyes, never to sleep

I tell you all the things I should have said

But you'll never know

How could I act such a part

As to love the one who breaks my heart?

I had to go

So, put your hands here around my waist

Though you cannot feel my touch, dear

And dance with me, as you did before

I'm bound forever to this house

I can never go beyond that door

I dance alone

So, when you think of me, smile

It's the only way that I can see

That you still care for me

Close my eyes, never to sleep

I tell you all the things I should have said

But you'll never know

How could I act such a part

As to love the one who breaks my heart?

I had to go

Here I am, I'm right here

How I wish you could see me, dear

Oh, my dear
