The Ghost of You (80s Ver.) - GABRIELLA RAELYN

It was an unbelievable night She was an unremarkable girl You may not call it poetry But it changed my world It was an unforgettable dawn She was an indisputable fact Even if I could have I might not have it back It's an unexceptional day She's an unavoidable truth Uncompromised elation Suspended since my youth It's an unforgivable lie I have nothing in my defence There can be no forgiveness To caution this descent It wasn't in a dream A film or on TV This was really happening Happening to me Though I may protest Suggest I never knew The ghost comes back to haunt me The ghost of sex and you I held her hand outside the hotel Kissed her mouth in the back of the car Whether fact or fantasy I knew we'd gone too far I feel her breath on the back of my neck She's lying naked here on the floor Wrap the sheet around her Disappear beyond the door It wasn't in a dream A film or on TV This was really happening Happening to me Though I may protest Suggest I never knew The ghost comes back to haunt me The ghost of sex and you It was an unbelievable night She was an unremarkable girl You may not call it poetry But it changed my world The ghost of sex and you It was an unforgettable dawn She was an indisputable fact Even if I could have I might not have it back Sex and you It's an unexceptional day She's an unavoidable truth Uncompromised elation Suspended since my youth Sex and you It's an unforgivable lie I have nothing in my defence There can be no forgiveness To caution this descent The ghost of sex and you

It's 4 a.m., I sashay with myself Couples all surround me. So in love, eyes all aglow Oh, say you found me. All my steps are memorized Swaying to a rhythm so nice. Patterns of my feet tattoo the floor They're frozen there like ice. I dance with the ghost of you, What else can I do? You seem too far from view So I dance with the ghost of you. Defying everything, I stay on the floor Advances are effective. I'm not saying a thing to a soul To keep my heart protected. Sirens think I get in their way Their logic won't compute. Instead, I'm adding up the hours I spend With everyone but you. I dance with the ghost of you, What else can I do? You seem too far from view So I dance with the ghost of you. They say there's not much difference Between a good man and a long drag from a cigarette. Sometimes you feel it, sometimes you don't. Sometimes you need it, sometimes you don't. But no one likes a ghost. I dance with the ghost of you, What else can I do? You seem too far from view So I dance with the ghost of you.

Turn my back to the door Feel so much better now Don't even try anymore Nothing left to lose There's a voice that's in the air Saying 'don't look back nowhere' There's a voice that's always there And I'll never be quite the same As I was before this Part of you still remains Though its out of focus You're just somewhere that I've been And I wont go back again You're just somewhere that I've been I'm breathing in, breathing out Ain't that what it's all about? Living life crazy loud Like I have the right to No more words in my mouth Nothing left to figure out But I don't think I'll ever break through The ghost of you And I'll never be like I was The day I met you Too naive, yes I was Boy let's that's why i let you in Wear your memory like a stain Can't erase or numb the pain Here to stay with me forever Breathing in, breathing out Ain't that what it's all about? Living life crazy loud Like I have the right to No more words in my mouth Nothing left to figure out But I don't think I'll ever break through The ghost of you One of these days, I'll wake up from this bad dream I'm dreaming One of these days i pray that I'll be over over over you One of these days, I'll realize that I'm so tired of feeling confused But for now there's a reason that you're still here in my heart... I'm breathing in, breathing out Ain't that what it's all about? Living life crazy loud Like I have the right to No more words in my mouth Nothing left for me to doubt But I don't think I'll ever break through The ghost of you Breathing in, breathing out Breathing in, breathing out Like i have the right to No more words in my mouth Nothing left to figure out But I don't think I'll ever break through The ghost of you
