Makes me think of John and how much we miss him!!! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Okay, feel free to move this thread if anyone feels it does not belong on this board for TC!!

Has anyone seen or heard of Phantom of the Opera By Andrew Lloyd Webber? The reason i ask is because featured in this spectacular musical/movie, there is a beautiful song entitled "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again" . Every time this scene comes up in the play or movie, i can't help but weep because it makes me think so much about how i/we feel about John being who he was and not being here any longer!! Here are the lyrics to this amazing and touching song!:

You were once my one companion
You were all that mattered
You were once a friend and father
Then my world was shattered

Wishing you were somehow here again
Wishing you were somehow near
Sometimes it seemed if I just dreamed
Somehow you would be here

Wishing I could hear your voice again
Knowing that I never would
Dreaming of you won't help me to do
All that you dreamed I could

Passing bells and sculpted angels
Cold and monumental
Seem for you the wrong companions
You were warm and gentle

Too many years fighting back tears
Why can't the past just die?

Wishing you were somehow here again
Knowing we must say goodbye
Try to forgive, teach me to live
Give me the strength to try

No more memories, no more silent tears
No more gazing across the wasted years
Help me say goodbye
Help me say goodbye

Unfortunately, i could not get the link to hear it to work.Sorry!! But you guys get the meaning behind this post!! Just read the words, need i say more?!!

It is soung by the beautiful and amazing Sarah Brightman in the play and Emmy Rossum in the movie version!!

The one song that makes me think of John is by Jordan Hill theme song from the movie Casper' Remember Me This Way'. This song really hits home when I think of John.

Here are the lyrics to "Remember Me This Way"

Every now and then
We find a special friend
who never lets us down...

Who understands it all
reaches out each time we fall
you're the best friend i have found...

I know you can't stay
a part of you will never ever go away
your heart will stay.....

I'll make a wish for you,
and hope it will come true,
if life will just be kind,
to such a gentle mind,
if you lose your way,
think back on yesturday
remember me this way,
remember me this way.

I don't need eyes to see
the love you bring to me,
no matter where I go
and I know that you'll be there
forever-more a part of me and everywhere
I'll always care.....

I'll make a wish for you
and hope it will come true,
if life will just be kind,
to such a gentle mind,
and if you lose your way
think back on yesturday
remember me this way,
remember me this way.

and I'll be right behind your shoulder,watching you
I'll be standing by your side, all you do
and I won't ever leave
as long as you believe,
you just believe....

I'll make a wish for you
and hope it will come true
if life will just be kind
to such a gentle mind
and if you lose your way
think back on yesturday
remember me this way
remember me this way.
o.....
this way.
