Intro
(Verse 1)
Empty coffee cups, stained with yesterday's tears
Your side of the bed is cold, whispering all my fears
The scent of your cologne, still lingers on the air
Every corner of this room, echoes with your careless prayer
You promised forever, carved it into my soul
Now the silence screams your absence, taking its heavy toll
(Pre-Chorus)
I trace the lines of your face, in faded photographs
Trying to remember the laughter, before the aftermath
The puzzle of us is scattered, pieces lost and torn
Leaving me here in this wreckage, utterly forlorn
(Chorus)
You’re a ghost of you, haunting every street we walked
A whisper in the wind, a chapter that’s been talked
And rehashed and ripped apart, until there’s nothing left
Just the echoes of your promises, and a heart bereft
You’re a ghost of you, fading in the fading light
Leaving me alone in darkness, battling through the night
(Verse 2)
I see your reflection in crowds, in strangers passing by
Each face a fleeting reminder, of the goodbye in your eye
The songs we used to sing, now sting with bitter taste
Every memory a sharp pin, stabbing my heart with haste
I built my world around you, a foundation made of sand
Now I’m stumbling through the ruins, with no hand to understand
(Pre-Chorus)
I trace the lines of your face, in faded photographs
Trying to remember the laughter, before the aftermath
The puzzle of us is scattered, pieces lost and torn
Leaving me here in this wreckage, utterly forlorn
(Chorus)
You’re a ghost of you, haunting every street we walked
A whisper in the wind, a chapter that’s been talked
And rehashed and ripped apart, until there’s nothing left
Just the echoes of your promises, and a heart bereft
You’re a ghost of you, fading in the fading light
Leaving me alone in darkness, battling through the night
(Bridge)
Maybe someday the pain will lessen, the memories will fade
But right now the wound is open, a price that I have paid
I search for something solid, a glimmer of the truth
But all I find is emptiness, proof of my lost youth
(Chorus)
You’re a ghost of you, haunting every street we walked
A whisper in the wind, a chapter that’s been talked
And rehashed and ripped apart, until there’s nothing left
Just the echoes of your promises, and a heart bereft
You’re a ghost of you, fading in the fading light
Leaving me alone in darkness, battling through the night
(Outro)
A ghost, a ghost of you…
Just a ghost now…
And I'm left here… in the night.
