Her Lingering

Whispers in the dark, secrets you hide

Questions burning deep inside

I see the signs, I see the truth in your eyes

Caught in the web of your disguise

When you hang out with her, what do you say?

Topics tangled, weaving through your day

Do you talk about dreams or just the past?

Are the moments shared meant to last?

Music plays, melodies we knew

Is she playing a part in you?

Do you take her places, that you take me

Are her footprints where we roam?

Tell me what you do when you're with her

Is she the one who makes your heart beat?

Are the kisses real, or just a game?

Why do I feel she's part of your world?

Every secret, every lie

Lingers in the corners of your eye

Disguised, discarded traces left behind

She stays in your mind, in also mine

How many times have I been in the dark?

Unseen moments, a hidden spark

You say she’s not a friend, but why

Does she always flicker in your mind?

Same places, same old tune

Are we just shadows in the moon?

When you say "going out with the guys"

I know it’s her your with

Can you feel her footsteps echo from behind?

Tell me what you do when you're with her

Is she the one who makes your heart beat?

Are the kisses real, or just a game?

Why do I feel she's part of your world?

I want to know, I need to know

When she became part of your world

Secrets kept, but I can feel

Her lingering is what’s unreal
