Ghost Stories

I told you you were dead to me
When you walked out the door
The wreckage of a love gone bad
Strewn across the floor
Memories are left to tell
Of where it all went wrong
Locked inside a living hell
Just waiting for the dawn
Nights alone are slow to pass
A darkened room and an empty glass
Heavy footsteps call your name
Sadness falls like pourin' rain
Lightnin' strikes, I hear your voice
I answer back, I have no choice
Restless spirit fills this place
The shadows dance, I see your face
Yeah
The smell of your sweet perfume
Still lingers in the air
Your presence still fills up this room
I swear you’re lying there
I reach out to touch a time
When we were so in love
To taste the sweetness of your kiss
That’s what I’m dreamin' of
Nights alone are slow to pass
A darkened room and an empty glass
Heavy footsteps call your name
Sadness falls like pourin' rain
Lightnin' strikes, I hear your voice
I answer back, I have no choice
Restless spirit fills this place
The shadows dance, I see your face
It’s the same every night until the dawn
I just can’t believe you’re really gone
Nights alone are slow to pass
A darkened room and an empty glass
Heavy footsteps call your name
Sadness falls like pourin' rain
Lightnin' strikes, I hear your voice
I answer back, I have no choice
Restless spirit fills this place
The shadows dance, I see your face
