Ghost of You

I'm just a simple man
And I am on my own
When I'm in crowded rooms
I still feel alone

I pour myself a drink
And one more to share
But when I turn around
She still isn't there

I am tired of waiting around
I don't believe
That the only fucked up soul that's here is me

Now I'm waiting to be the one
To carry you at the end of the night
When I reach my hand for yours, it slips right through
Now I'm waiting in the dark,
Won't someone please just give me a light
Cause I'm running from myself to the ghost of you
To the ghost of you

I had a talk with myself
He told me not to tell
Now I'm aching from the touch of the hands I've held
He said you're suffering
But not to fret
Cause she's thinking just like you
She doesn't know it yet

There is someone out there waiting just for you
But till then you'll walk this lonely avenue

Now I'm waiting to be the one
To carry you at the end of the night
When I reach my hand for yours, it slips right through
Now I'm waiting in the dark,
Won't someone please just give me a light
Cause I'm running from myself to the ghost of you
To the ghost of you

I'm running from myself to the ghost of you

Now I'm waiting to be the one
To carry you at the end of the night
When I reach my hand for yours, it slips right through
Now I'm waiting in the dark,
Won't someone please just give me a light
Cause I'm running from myself to the ghost of you
To the ghost of you

I'm running from myself to the ghost of you
