When He Was Here With Me

"When He Was Here With Me" is a song from the 2022 remake of Pinocchio. It is heard when Geppetto grieves over his late son when working on a puppet whom he later names Pinocchio while Jiminy Cricket curiously gets a closer look on Geppetto working on Pinocchio.

(spoken)
Maybe something here
A touch behind the ear
Not a boy, just a toy
For a puppeteer
Thinking way back when
I'm missing him again
A heart so young, songs unsung
Oh, what might have been
I see him in my dreams
So perfectly, it seems
If I could only make these dreams come true
I may never find
This vision in my mind
Memory may hold the key
To feeling how I felt
When he was here with me
(sung)
There was so much laughter
But we couldn't see
Happily ever after was never meant to be
If only this could be more than a memory
But memory will have to be
The way this old man's eyes can see
Just how it really was
When he was here with me
