ERGENS NOG HIER by Bas Kooman published on 2021-05-06T09:05:53Z For Saskia and her dad (1935-2021) [Rough English translation] SOMEWHERE STILL HERE Hey Dad, how are you It's been a while I miss you I can still see you standing Behind the front door From the nursing home How you kept waving When we had to go You couldn’t find your place Didn’t get used to it there You wanted to go home With us Until you forgot Where your home was Who everyone was It all happened so fast But it feels like you are somewhere Somewhere still here with me And know what I think Hey Dad, I still see us Together enjoying Concerts by Bach You with closed eyes You were there for me When I got depressed That I was not alone Spoke out of your face And it feels like you are somewhere Somewhere still here with me And know what I think Sometimes you were struggling You could be angry, stubborn Did not know what to do with yourself The helplessness of your childhood You came back to that again A child, now skin and bone That was always on its own All alone Hey Dad, I would Like to talk to you While I rub your shoulder Somewhere still here, somewhere on earth Where you are with me Cover art: Katinka Kooman Strings: Javier Orman Mastered 2022.10.16 Genre Folk & Singer-Songwriter Comment by Andrew LB Smith This is just lovely! 2023-02-02T17:47:15Z Comment by Recurring Oblivion mooi tekst 2023-01-14T08:58:49Z Comment by valparasito lovely song, made me cry 2022-10-21T00:35:10Z Comment by Illogical Post Elegante voz, canción que lleva y trae 2022-10-20T20:43:27Z Comment by 44Mardo Dope cover art what a song nice one 2022-10-19T16:14:52Z Comment by TARIUS WEBBER So refreshing and so soothing, so thank you 2022-10-19T06:18:22Z Comment by Elyssia Very beautiful song even though I don't understand a word.
