[Intro - Clean electric guitar, atmospheric pads, soft heartbeat drum] (Her, soft) I was still sleeping When the world moved on without you Now I'm reaching for the space you left And my hands just pass right through [Verse 1 - Her, bass enters, subtle build] I still hear your voice in the hallway I still see your jacket on the door Told myself I'd be okay by Tuesday But Tuesday came and went And I'm still wanting more [Pre-Chorus - Her, guitars swell gently] And every time I close my eyes I see the version of us that survived But the morning pulls me back to the truth [Chorus - Her lead, Him answering] (Her) You're just a ghost now Just a ghost in my memory (Him) I'm just a ghost now Just a shadow you can't keep (Her) I keep reaching for something real But you fade before you reach me (Him) I'm reaching back through the dark But the living can't hold the dreaming (Her) Tell me it's all in my head Tell me I'll wake up and you'll be there (Him) It's not all in your head I'm closer than the morning air (Both) 'Cause you're just a ghost now Just a ghost everywhere [Verse 2 - Her, more intimate, stripped back] I drove past the house where we started Sat in the driveway for an hour Every light was on but no one's heart was in it And the flowers that we planted They don't bloom without you [Pre-Chorus - Her, building again] And every time I close my eyes I see the version of us that survived But the morning pulls me back to the truth [Chorus - Duet, even more emotional, voices weaving] (Her) You're just a ghost now Just a ghost in my memory (Him) I'm just a ghost now Just a shadow you can't keep (Her) I keep reaching for something real But you fade before you reach me (Him) I'm reaching back through the dark But the living can't hold the dreaming (Her) Tell me it's all in my head Tell me I'll wake up and you'll be there (Him) It's not all in your head I'm closer than the morning air (Both) 'Cause you're just a ghost now Just a ghost everywhere [Bridge - Stripped to piano and vocal, the conversation] (Her) If I could sleep forever Would I find you on the other side (Him) If you slept forever, my love I'd be waiting where the shadows hide (Her) If I never woke up Would you still be mine (Him) In every dream you ever dream I'm yours, I'm yours, till the end of time [Final Chorus - Full explosion, both voices, maximum emotion] (Both) You're just a ghost now Just a ghost in my memory I keep reaching for something real But you fade before you reach me Tell me it's all in my head Tell me I'll wake up and you'll be there But you're just a ghost now Just a ghost [Outro - Clean guitar fades, both soft] (Both) Just a ghost in my sleep.
