Ghost Of The Past

[Verse 1] In the silence of a sleepless night I hear your voice beneath the light Like a photograph that's torn in two Every memory leads back to you [Verse 2] Dusty frames upon the wall Still hold echoes of it all Every step across this floor Sounds like you're here once more [Pre-Chorus] I close my eyes to let you go But you're the only thing I know [Chorus] You're the ghost of the past, haunting me Living in the shadows that I cannot leave Time keeps moving, but you're standing still A faded memory that lingers at will You're the ghost of the past, in my mind A piece of my heart I could never untie Though the years disappear like rain You still walk the halls inside my brain [Verse 3] Broken clocks and scattered dreams Nothing's ever what it seems Every laugh, every goodbye Lives behind these tired eyes [Pre-Chorus] I tried to bury yesterday But the memories refuse to fade [Chorus] You're the ghost of the past, haunting me Living in the shadows that I cannot leave Time keeps moving, but you're standing still A faded memory that lingers at will You're the ghost of the past, in my mind A piece of my heart I could never untie Though the years disappear like rain You still walk the halls inside my brain [Bridge] In every song, in every place I still see traces of your face The world moves on, the seasons pass But I remain with the ghost of the past [Final Chorus] You're the ghost of the past, haunting me A distant fire that still burns quietly Time may heal what love has lost But some scars remain no matter the cost You're the ghost of the past, and I know Some memories are never meant to go Though tomorrow calls my name at last I'm still chasing the ghost of the past [Outro] In the quiet, when the darkness falls I still hear your distant call A shadow cast that's built to last Forever the ghost of the past.
