lyrics

A body without a funeral, parting without a goodbye
No-one knew about us two, no-one told me you were going to die
In the middle of a mass disaster, so much personal tragedy
You said you never knew if I needed you - right now I need you close to me.

We once had a talk about dying. You laughed and said it would be fine
if you met your end, you’d just return again and haunt me til the end of time.

You never were a disappointment, you’re letting me down now I need you the most
The only thing I need is you haunting me. Tell me baby, where is your ghost?

The candles that I light never flicker, there’s no slamming of an open door
I put a cup on the ledge, pull it close to the edge but it never smashes to the floor
I’m longing for an apparition - the shape of a figure when I wake up at night
A voice in my ear or a sense that you’re near and everything will work out alright

We once had a talk about dying. You never took it seriously
said if even if you died you’d remain by my side forever be there haunting me.

You never were a disappointment, you’re letting me down now I need you the most
The only thing I need is you haunting me . Tell me baby, where is your ghost?

We once had a talk about dying. You said "focus on living, instead".
I only felt alive when you were by my side.
What use is living now that you are dead?

You never were a disappointment, you’re letting me down now I need you the most
The only thing I need is you haunting me. Tell me baby, where is your ghost?

You never were a disappointment you’re letting me down now I need you the most
The only thing I need is you haunting me. Tell me baby, where is your ghost?
