The Ghost
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I know I'm living, but I feel numb
Up high one minute, then memories come
And no matter what I do, I can't escape
When the ghost of you still haunts me everyday
You're the door that slams behind me
And you're the morning light that blinds me
Every thought and every feeling
You were always in control, even now, you're taking hold
So if you loved me, then drift into the night
Set me free from the past, let me move on
Like shooting stars, we can pass each other by
I need you gone
I see your face when I close my eyes
Keep reaching out for your hand when I can't sleep
A thousand memories that haunt my mind
Spirits and shadows remind me I'm not alone
They tell me that I need time and space
But no one could ever take your place
So, my angel, this is goodbye
It's time that I give up the ghost
Spent too long on this roller coaster
Maybe I, I just need some closure
My butterfly, won't you flutter right out of my life?
You're the door that slams behind me ('hind me)
And you're the morning light that blinds me
(That blinds me) every thought and every feeling
You were always in control, even now, you're taking hold
So if you loved me, then drift into the night
Set me free from the past, let me move on (move on)
Like shooting stars, we can pass each other by
I need you gone (need you gone)
I see your face when I close my eyes (oh, oh)
Keep reaching out for your hand when I can't sleep (yeah)
A thousand memories that haunt my mind
Spirits and shadows remind me I'm not alone
They tell me that I need time and space
But no one could ever take your place
So, my angel, this is goodbye
It's time that I give up the ghost
Yeah, spent too long in the dark
Now I gotta break free
Time to bury the past, I've got to
Learn to be me without you
This time, I'm cutting you loose
I see your face when I close my eyes
Keep reaching out for your hand when I can't sleep
A thousand memories that haunt my mind
It's time that I give up the ghost, oh-whoa
They tell me that I need time and space
But no one could ever take your place
So, my angel, this is goodbye
It's time that I give up the ghost
I know I'm living, but I feel numb
Up high one minute, then memories come
And no matter what I do, I can't escape
When the ghost of you still haunts me everyday
You're the door that slams behind me
And you're the morning light that blinds me
Every thought and every feeling
You were always in control, even now, you're taking hold
So if you loved me, then drift into the night
Set me free from the past, let me move on
Like shooting stars, we can pass each other by
I need you gone
I see your face when I close my eyes
Keep reaching out for your hand when I can't sleep
A thousand memories that haunt my mind
Spirits and shadows remind me I'm not alone
They tell me that I need time and space
But no one could ever take your place
So, my angel, this is goodbye
It's time that I give up the ghost
Spent too long on this roller coaster
Maybe I, I just need some closure
My butterfly, won't you flutter right out of my life?
You're the door that slams behind me ('hind me)
And you're the morning light that blinds me
(That blinds me) every thought and every feeling
You were always in control, even now, you're taking hold
So if you loved me, then drift into the night

They tell me that I need time and space
But no one could ever take your place
So, my angel, this is goodbye
It's time that I give up the ghost
