[Verse 1]
You came through soft
like rain on glass
Left your shoes by the door
then vanished fast
My phone stayed hot
with your name on it
Then the screen went cold
like you never meant it
I kept your hoodie
on the back of my chair
Like a little ghost
that still lives there
You'd say "I'm here"
then disappear again
And I played the fool
every time you left
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I hear your steps
in an empty hall
I reach for your hand
and I lose it all
You got that way
of breaking me slow
Pulling me close
then letting me go
[Chorus]
You come and go
come and go
ghost on my heart
You come and go
come and go
tear me apart
Stay for a night
then fade in the dark
You come and go
come and go
ghost on my heart
[Verse 2]
I kept your last text
like a prayer in my pocket
Read it too many times
trying to lock it
Said "I'll be better"
said "I need space"
Then you turned into smoke
right in my face
I saw your car once
down the block from mine
Hands on the wheel
eyes gone blind
I wanted to call
wanted to run to you
But loving you hurt
more than losing you
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I hear your steps
in an empty hall
I reach for your hand
and I lose it all
You got that way
of breaking me slow
Pulling me close
then letting me go
[Chorus]
You come and go
come and go
ghost on my heart
You come and go
come and go
tear me apart
Stay for a night
then fade in the dark
You come and go
come and go
ghost on my heart
[Bridge]
If you don't want me
say it to my face
Don't leave me hanging
in this empty place
I can take the truth
I can't take the maze
Of half-held love
and your runaway days
I loved your chaos
I loved your name
But I can't keep bleeding
for the same old flame
[Final Chorus]
You come and go
come and go
ghost on my heart
You come and go
come and go
tear me apart
Stay for a night
then fade in the dark
You come and go
come and go
ghost on my heart
You come and go
come and go
I still feel you
You come and go
come and go
what am I supposed to do
