Verse 1)
N Cinematic Deep House hit. Soulful male vocals meet deep bass, melancholic cello, and elegant piano. Melodic yet moody. eon lines and the city glow
I saw a ghost of someone I used to know
In that first frame, in the digital light
I saw the version of you that burns so bright
The one you hide, the one you keep
Somewhere golden, somewhere deep
I felt the soul beneath the skin
The beauty of what could have been.
(Pre-Chorus)
But the hours turned to heavy days
The gold began to turn to grey
You showed me shadows, you showed me fear
Until the vision started to disappear.
(Chorus)
I’m in love with the ghost of who you are
The one I saw when we were just a spark
Now I’m drowning in the person that you choose to be
The distance in between is killing me
High hopes, low light
Losing the frequency tonight
I’m in love with the ghost of who you are
But you’re drifting away, drifting too far.
(Drop)
(Deep, melodic bass pulse)
(Vocal chop: "Who you are... Who you could be...")
(Driving percussion)
(Verse 2)
Now we’re standing on the edge of the floor
I don’t recognize your face anymore
In the friction, in the heat of the fight
The person I met has walked out of sight
You’re trapped in the moments that pull you down
While the queen I saw has lost her crown
It’s a long way down from that first high
Watching a miracle slowly die.
(Pre-Chorus)
But the hours turned to heavy days
The gold began to turn to grey
You showed me shadows, you showed me fear
Until the vision started to disappear.
(Chorus)
I’m in love with the ghost of who you are
The one I saw when we were just a spark
Now I’m drowning in the person that you choose to be
The distance in between is killing me
High hopes, low light
Losing the frequency tonight
I’m in love with the ghost of who you are
But you’re drifting away, drifting too far.
(Bridge)
(Atmospheric pads and stripped back beat)
It wasn’t a lie, it was a glimpse
A flash of light before the eclipse
I know she’s in there, I know she’s real
But I can’t live on a ghost’s appeal.
(Outro)
Drifting too far...
I saw who you could be...
But the moments won’t let you go.
Just a spark.
Just a ghost.
(Fade out with deep bass pulse)
Symmetry
