Beloved Lyrics

Here I am,
I'm right here
O I wish you could feel me
Standing so close
I'm right beside you dear

I float through this man house
I float through the walls
I scream and 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

I 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

I 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
O my dear ...

Short Note

Goin' Back to My Roots

Here I am, 
I'm right here
O I wish you could feel me
Standing so close
I'm right beside you dear

I float through this man house
I float through the walls
I scream and 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

I 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

I 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
O my dear ...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

this song has a hauntingly beautiful quality about it. I think it's about losing someone & being haunted by the memories or her leaving someone else behind (through death) & dwelling in the place they lived together because she cannot leave him or the love behind even after death. "Here I am, i'm right here, how i wish you could see me dear......... put your hands around my waist, though you cannot feel my touch dear..... i'm bound forever to this house, i can never go beyond that door"

Hi @diana_x, This song had (past tense) been a song that always made me cry. I felt strong connections to songs that make you feel about what the artist was sending out. Ur spot on with ur thoughts. How would I feel if my partner passed away but became a ghost and was bound by the walls of our residence? I'd b yearning 2 touch her again. "So, when u think of me, smile..." would always make me tear up. It's a shame Wendy didn't do a music video 2 this song. I reckon it would've been awesome. But, now because...
