Verse 1
I still hear your footsteps in the empty hall,
Like your shadow never really left at all.
Every little memory keeps calling out my name,
But loving you and losing you will never feel the same.
Pre-Chorus
You said forever like you really meant the word,
Now forever is the silence that I heard.
Chorus
Now I’m dancing with the ghost of what we used to be,
Holding onto broken dreams that only I can see.
You found a sunrise, I got caught inside the rain,
Trying to smile while I’m drowning in the pain.
If love was meant to heal, then why does mine still bleed?
You walked away with all of you… and half of me.
Verse 2
Your picture’s on my phone, but I can’t press delete,
‘Cause letting go of you feels more like my defeat.
I tell the world I’m doing fine, I fake another day,
But every night I whisper all the words I couldn’t say.
Bridge
Maybe in another life we’d get it right somehow,
Maybe we’d still be together if love could hear us now.
But wishes don’t rewind the hands of time,
And your heart found another while I’m still losing mine.
Final Chorus
Now I’m dancing with the ghost of what we used to be,
Every broken promise is another memory.
You found a future, I got lost inside the past,
Praying somehow broken hearts weren’t built to last.
If you ever think of me when the stars light up above,
Just remember… I gave you everything I called love.
Outro
So I’ll let the tears fall with the midnight rain,
Carry your name away with every ounce of pain.
I’ll always love the person that I had to let go…
Even if you never come back home.
