(Intro - Instrumental) (Verse 1) The coffee cup is cold, the sun is in your place A single thread of moonlight falls across the space Your jacket on the chair, a story half untold A silence so heavy it's enough to break the mold Of everything we were, everything we thought we'd be Just a silent movie playing out for only me (Pre-Chorus) I tried to put the pieces back, but they don't fit no more And every open window feels like a brand new door To a different world, where you're a stranger to my name Am I just screaming in the dark, calling out in vain? (Chorus) 'Cause I can feel you fading like a ghost in this room A whispered goodbye, lost in the gathering gloom And every memory's a photograph I can't look at Yeah, you’re an empty space where my heart used to be at And I can't let go, even when I know it's time You’re a ghost in this room, and this room is only mine (Verse 2) The city sounds outside, they’re just a passing blur I thought the noise could drown out what we used to murmur You said that love was easy, a river meant to flow But you held on so tight that you had nowhere left to go And now I'm here in fragments, just pieces of a past That moved on so quickly, I knew it couldn't last (Pre-Chorus) I tried to put the pieces back, but they don't fit no more And every open window feels like a brand new door To a different world, where you're a stranger to my name Am I just screaming in the dark, calling out in vain? (Chorus) 'Cause I can feel you fading like a ghost in this room A whispered goodbye, lost in the gathering gloom And every memory's a photograph I can't look at Yeah, you’re an empty space where my heart used to be at And I can't let go, even when I know it's time You’re a ghost in this room, and this room is only mine (Bridge) Is there a part of you that’s still reaching back? Just a single tear in a tidal wave of black? 'Cause I'd drown a thousand times if it brought me to your side Just for one more moment, with nowhere left to hide (Final Chorus) 'Cause I can feel you fading like a ghost in this room A whispered goodbye, lost in the gathering gloom And every memory's a photograph I can't look at Yeah, you’re an empty space where my heart used to be at And I can't let go, even when I know it's time You’re a ghost in this room, and this room is only mine (Outro - Instrumental fades slowly, with soft piano notes)
