The Ghost

Lyrics

[Intro] Ooh, ooh, ooh [Verse 1] I know I'm living but I feel numb Up high one minute then memories come And no matter what I do, I can't escape When the ghost of you still haunts me everyday You're the door that slams behind me And you're the morning light that blinds me Every thought and every feeling You were always in control, even now, you're taking hold [Pre-Chorus] So if you loved me, then drift into the night Set me free from the past, let me move on Like shooting stars we can pass each other by I need you gone [Chorus] I see your face when I close my eyes Keep reaching out for your hand when I can't sleep A thousand memories that haunt my mind Spirits and shadows remind me I'm not alone They tell me that I need time and space But no one could ever take your place So, my angel, this is goodbye It's time that I give up the ghost [Verse 2] Spent too long on this roller coaster Maybe I, I just need some closure My butterfly Won't you flutter right out of my life? You're the door that slams behind me (-Hind me) And you're the morning light that blinds me (That blinds me) Every thought and every feeling You were always in control, even now, you're taking hold [Pre-Chorus] So if you loved me, then drift into the night Set me free from the past, let me move on (Move on) Like shooting stars we can pass each other by I need you gone (Need you gone) [Chorus] I see your face when I close my eyes (Oh, oh) Keep reaching out for your hand when I can't sleep (Oh) A thousand memories that haunt my mind Spirits and shadows remind me I'm not alone They tell me that I need time and space But no one could ever take your place So, my angel, this is goodbye It's time that I give up the ghost [Bridge] Yeah, spent too long in the dark, now I gotta break free Time to bury the past, I've got to Learn to be me without you This time, I'm cutting you loose [Chorus] I see your face when I close my eyes Keep reaching out for your hand when I can't sleep A thousand memories that haunt my mind It's time that I give up the ghost, oh-woah They tell me that I need time and space But no one could ever take your place So, my angel, this is goodbye (Goodbye) It's time that I give up the ghost
