[Verse 1] Your name on my screen Like frost on glass One little ping And I fall right back You leave me on read I still stay near Like a door in the wall That only you hear [Pre-Chorus] I trace the code In the dark all night One wrong move And you fade from sight I know that look When you almost stay Then you slip through my hands Like smoke away [Chorus] Ghost in the wire Come back, come back Ghost in the wire I want you back Say my name, say it clean Before you disappear on me Ghost in the wire Come back, come back [Verse 2] Your old voice note Still lives in my phone Three little words And I'm not alone I keep the spark In a broken line You haunt every space Between your signs [Pre-Chorus] I hear you breathe In the buzz and glow Every missing part Still tells me so If I reach too fast You cut me loose But I still run toward Your phantom truth [Chorus] Ghost in the wire Come back, come back Ghost in the wire I want you back Say my name, say it clean Before you disappear on me Ghost in the wire Come back, come back [Bridge] Maybe you're real Maybe you're not Maybe I'm chained To the last shot Still I wait by the edge Of your fading light For one more sign One more night [Final Chorus] Ghost in the wire Come back, come back Ghost in the wire I want you back Say my name, say it clean Before you disappear on me Ghost in the wire Come back, come back
