There's a cold spot on the pillow where you never stayed A breath on my neck when the hallway fades The lamp goes dim every time I speak your name Footsteps on the stairs Nobody came Your shape in the mirror lingers without a word And the piano plays the song you never heard You wouldn’t look at me when I looked at you Now you have all the time And this is what you do? You're haunting me like you meant it (like you meant it) Like it's me you came back for You never held me before So why hold me like this? Oh you're haunting me like you meant it I’m in the cold I’m in the dark I’m not sure of anything I poured the salt on every ledge I burned the sage I paid the priest I changed the locks I changed the city I drove a thousand miles and you rode shotgun east Your voice in the vents when the air breathes Your hand on the glass in the fog Then it leaves You wouldn't pick up the phone when I called Now my screen lights up with your silence after all You're haunting me like you meant it (like you meant it) Like it's me you came back for You never held me before So why hold me like this? Oh you're haunting me like you meant it I'd take the cold I'd take the dark I'd take anything but this Now I've found you You went quiet You're here Not looking at me Looking at the door Even now You're halfway out Like you always were You won't look at me You were never here to see You were only here When I wouldn't let you be I've been haunting you like I meant it (like I meant it) Calling you back once more I never held you before So why hold you like this? Oh I've been haunting you like I meant it So go The door is open wide I won’t be dead inside
