LYRICS TO ‘I’LL SEE YOU AGAIN’ BY SCOTT HELMER:

I step inside, this empty house
Here’s what I hear and see
Familiar voices are crying out loud
But they make no sense to me

Then I came around, the corner to find
You lying there, and me out of my mind
Remembering there’s nothing we could do
But help you peacefully sleep that night

This is not the end, my friend
I know I’ll see you again
Up the road, around the bend
This is not the end, my friend
I’ll see you again

I look inside, this empty heart
Here’s what I feel and need
You by my side, with my guitar
Working on stories and dreams

Then I’d hit the road, to do what I do
Sing my songs, but I know you knew
You’re my best friend and will always be
More than a boy and his dog and memories

This is not the end, my friend
I know I’ll see you again
Up the road, around the bend
This is not the end, my friend
I’ll see you again

And like a shot in the dark
You took my breath away
Now you’re gone, but this hole in my heart remains

This is not the end, my friend
I know I’ll see you again
Up the road, around the bend
This is not the end, my friend
I’ll see you again

This is not the end, my friend
I know I’ll see you again
Up the road, around the bend
This is not the end, my friend
I’ll see you again

I step inside, this empty house
Here’s what I hear and see
