if you were here lyrics

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 your 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
