I hold you hand I and show you photos Of people you should know It breaks my heart when you then ask For me to take you home Oh if I could, you know I would Oh if I could, you know I would Last night he came to me In a lucid dream And we embraced for the first time We never did when he was alive Oh now if I could, you know I would Oh now if I could, you know I would And as those memories slowly slip and fade My love for you, it just grows And even though you can’t quite place my face I’ll never, ever forget you And as those memories slowly slip and fade My love for you, it just grows And even though you cant quite place my face I hope I’ll never forget you - you Forget you But I know there are some things That are sure to bring you back A song, a rhyme from the old times Or ‘Lagrima' on my guitar You know that I will, yes I’ll play for you You know that I will, yes I’ll play for you You know that I will, yes I’ll play for you You know that will, yes I’ll play for you
