Here are the lyrics to this gorgeous song and I've been puzzling over what it
could mean.

Beloved - Wendy Matthews
-------
Here I am
I'm right here
Oh I wish you could feel me
Standing so close
I'm right beside you dear.
I fly round this old man house,
I float through the walls
I scream and I 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
That 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 round 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
(close my eyes never to sleep)
Here I am I'm right here
How I wish you could see me dear
O my dear...

Ghosts? Eternal love? I'd appreciate any comments.
Regards,
Clara

As to what it means, like all song lyrics that must remain in the mind
of the beholder. But I know how it feels. I was in a dream, in the
kitchen, with a man who is dear to me. He was at the sink and I heard
him say, "I've had just about enough of this... searchin'." I said,
"But Julian, don't you remember? You found me." He didn't seem to
hear me. I said, "Julian? Julian?" Still he didn't respond. I went
over to touch him and my hand passed right through him. Undaunted, I
went and stood in his space, so that we were overlapping... and woke up
in bed. I willed myself back into the dream, and it was the same room,
but at a different time. He was at the table, looking up something in
a big red dictionary. I said his name again. He still didn't hear me.
With a cry of frustration I hurled myself once more into his space, and
woke up in bed again. :) :)

I think he cheated on her, he broke her heart, she killed herself and was trapped in their house!

its about a break up its about memories and the fact they are not together anymore but she still loves him and wishes they were still together she doesnt get to see him anymore she is an outsider looking in now where as before she was in the house with him but they are worlds apart now and maybe oneday she might bump into him she just hopes he still thinks of her..

This girl was passed away...she's talking about the guy that eventhough she's gone she wanted him to feel that she's still around him but he can't feel her...sad song but i love the lyrics...

Perhaps she’s still alive and he passed from suicide
