I dreamt that I might hear you

Laughing next to me.

And I dreamt that I might hold you

And love you tenderly.


I knew that I could love you,

Oh, but for the chance

God, take him back to heaven 

To join you in your dance


And I still hear you crying

In my soul at night

I’m sorry for your dying

It didn’t turn out right.


We loved each other, ________

God knows it was so strong

But somewhere in our loving

We must have loved too long.


It wasn’t just the feelings

It must have been the time

Like trying to write a poem

Without a verse to rhyme


And I still hear you crying

In my soul at night

I’m sorry for your dying

It didn’t turn out right.


I won’t forget him, ____________

The son we never had

And I won’t forget you either

Your eyes still make me sad


And forgive this letter, ____________

I can’t help what I feel

Your memory breaks my body

Lovin’ you was all too real


And hear I write this song

A song I’ll never sing

For who am I to say

How came to pass these things

And son I sure am sorry

That it didn’t turn out right

But I can sleep this evening 

To know that you’re with Him tonight

TWO FRIENDS

TWO FRIENDS - 1981 https://soundcloud.com/timrohr/track-5?in=timrohr/sets/love-remembered-tim-rohr-and-dominic-macaller-1981&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing   I sit this morning, my gaze upon the ocean, Looking at that ship across the sea. Wondering where she’s going, wondering where she’s been, Wondering if she’ll ever remember me. Our time together was never quite enough. The days they came and went too soon. But she left her love in side of me forever. It let me know this afternoon. A friend like him, I’ve never had before. Didn’t even know what friendship was. Till i discovered another part of me, In a friend that loved me just because. I can’t forget the night that i left you. I must have cried a thousand miles. And i got to learn to live my life without you, But i guess that’s gonna be a while. I guess that’s gonna be a while

DOWN TO THE RIVER

Down to the River - 1982 https://soundcloud.com/timrohr/track-12?in=timrohr/sets/love-remembered-tim-rohr-and-dominic-macaller-1981&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing Didn’t know what I was doin’ to you livin’ my life of sin Praisin’ you and prayin’ while I was drivin’ the nails in Didn’t know what I was doin’ to you with my smiles and little lies Proclaimin’ the Christian witness while Christ I made you die But I’m goin…down to the river to wash my soul from sin Down to river… to let my Savior in. Didn’t know what I was doin’ to you with my faith so secure Now you burn me in your fire of love and it hurts to be made pure Time after time I called to you to save me from the flood From the flood of consequences…for which you shed your blood But I’m goin…down to the river to wash my soul from sin Down to river… to let my Savior in. And Jesus Christ I pray to you send your Spirit from above My dying time is upon me please save me with your love For...

DRAGON SONG

 Dragon Song - 1982. "Fur Gianna"  https://soundcloud.com/timrohr/track-6?in=timrohr/sets/love-remembered-tim-rohr-and-dominic-macaller-1981&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing Well I didn’t mean to leave you and i don’t know why i did.  Just what it was that bought me here, was it something that is said?  I couldn’t really keep you, and i knew i wouldn’t try.  Better first to leave you dear than to watch our lovin’ die. But I’m a long way from home, and i got lovin’ on my mind.  Don’t think that i don’t miss you cuz i do.  And if you’re all alone please think of me sometime,  Cuz all i really wanted was just you. Faded blue jeans, silken gown, i wouldn’t really care.  If i could see my true loves eyes run my fingers through her hair.  With a smile and a laugh I’m sure I’d see the dragon in her eyes.  That’s why i had to leave you dear, i knew you had to fly. But I’m a long way from home, and...
