He's Not Here Lyrics

Next To Normal He's Not Here

((Note: these lyrics are the ones that appear on the original cast recording. However, the lyric, "He's been dead sixteen years" was changed to, "He's been dead several years" in later productions.))

DAN
He's not here
He's not here
Love, I know you know

Do you feel he's still real?
Love, it's just not so

Why is it you still believe?
Do you dream or do you grieve?
You've got to let him go

He's been dead sixteen years
No, my love, he's not here
