Intro – whispered, reverb heavy]
yeah…
you still in my head, girl…
can’t let go… no, no…
(beat kicks in – synth bass, bright hi-hats)
⸻
[Verse 1]
I see your face in the neon glow
You left your scent on my favorite coat
Every step I take feels just like before
But you’re not here anymore
(ad-libs)
not here… not here no more…
We were fire in a glass of pain
Now I’m driving fast through the rain
Every streetlight calling your name
But you don’t feel the same
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
You said “baby, don’t chase me down”
But I can’t stop when you’re not around
All this silence feels so loud
(yeah, it’s loud…)
⸻
[Chorus]
So I’m dancing with your ghost tonight (oh yeah)
In the flashing lights, I close my eyes (I close my eyes)
Pretend you’re mine, just one more time
’Cause heartbreak feels like paradise
(echo)
paradise… paradise…
⸻
[Verse 2]
The club is full but I’m still alone
You’re the beat inside my broken phone
All the bodies move but none like you
I’m lost between the red and blue
(ad-libs)
red and blue… can’t find you…
I told myself I’d let you fade
But every night I hear your name
You’re the high I can’t replace
I still taste you in the bass
⸻
[Bridge – falsetto, layered vocoder]
You’re the rhythm I can’t quit (no no)
Every pulse, I fall in it
I try to love the night instead
But it brings you back inside my head
*(echoed “inside my head… head… head…”)
⸻
[Chorus – extended]
So I’m dancing with your ghost tonight
Under violet skies, I lose the fight
Pretend you’re mine, just one more time
’Cause heartbreak feels like paradise
(ad-libs layered)
feels like paradise…
don’t wake me up…
you’re still the drug… yeah…
⸻
[Outro – whispered with reverb and delay]
I keep spinning… spinning…
till the lights go down…
but you never turn around…
I’m still dancing with your ghost…
