(Verse 1)
The sun comes up, another day
And I'm still here, watching you walk away
You're a ghost in my house, a whisper in the hall
I'm doing everything, but I'm just watching us fall
You say you're tired, you need to be free
But your new life, it's right in front of me
I see the pictures, the smiles, the perfect scenes
While I'm here living out my broken dreams
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm in love with a memory, a ghost of what we were
Holding onto a feeling that's just a blurry blur
You told me to let go, said you're already gone
But I'm still singing our song, all alone, all night long
And I know I should leave, I know I should flee
But I'm just a fool who loves someone who's not loving me
(Verse 2)
You call me when you're bored, when she's not around
Just to hear my voice, just to make a sound
I'm your safety net, your convenient place to land
A forgotten book in the palm of your hand
I make the coffee, I listen to you complain
About a life you chose, soaked in your own rain
And I swallow the hurt, the jealousy, the lies
Just to see a flicker of us in your eyes
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm in love with a memory, a ghost of what we were
Holding onto a feeling that's just a blurry blur
You told me to let go, said you're already gone
But I'm still singing our song, all alone, all night long
And I know I should leave, I know I should flee
But I'm just a fool who loves someone who's not loving me
(Bridge)
They say love is easy, it shouldn't hurt this way
But I'm addicted to this pain, day after day
I've given up my pride, my soul, my self-respect
For a love that's been severed, a love you've just wrecked
I'm building you bridges, but you're burning them down
I'm wearing your crown, even though I'm a clown
(Outro)
So tell me again to let go, just say the word
I'm just a love song that no one has heard
I'm just a love song, singing in the dark
A dying fire, a lonely, fading spark
I'm still here... but you're already gone
I'm still here... but you've already moved on.
