Ghost in the Passenger Seat

We were always just outside the lines,  
Caught between the truth and things we’d never find,  
You never said too much, but I always heard it clear,  
In the way your silence pulled me near.


And I wonder if you know,  
You haunt me like the wind,  
In every place I go,  
Your shadow’s settling in.


You’re the ghost in the passenger seat,  
The footsteps down an empty street,  
You’re the name I never learned to speak,  
But you’re always there, always there with me.


We lived inside a quiet storm,  
Not quite lovers, not quite warm,  
But something in the space we shared,  
Felt like love we couldn’t bear.


And I wonder if you see,  
The pieces left behind,  
In every breath I breathe,  
You’re still somewhere in my mind.


You’re the ghost in the passenger seat,  
The echo of a heart’s retreat,  
You’re the dream I never dared to keep,  
But you’re always there, always there with me.


And maybe you were trying to stay safe,  
While I was learning how to break,  
But we were dancing in between,  
Something quiet, something unseen.


You’re the ghost in the passenger seat,  
The kind of love that’s bittersweet,  
And though you’re gone, I still believe,  
You’re always there, always there with me.
