I Can Still Pretend You're Here Tonight

from Estranged by Dusty Stray

lyrics

So many things that have never been done
So many songs that have never been sung
I think of all the pain you went through
I think you knew all the time that I knew
You were only to be here a short time
I can still pretend you’re here tonight

You once said that we just weren’t meant to be
At least not so romantically
You gave me plenty of inspiration
Through love lots of damage is done
What was unsaid tears shed to try and make it right
I can still pretend you’re here tonight

I hope in some sort of heavenly place
You are surrounded by love, light and grace
I hear your voice now so weak yet so clear
It’s almost as if you were really here
And I know you hated to have to say goodbye
I can still pretend you’re here tonight
