Ghost

Ghost

I’m hovering over my grave tonight,
Watching you crying
In a sea of flowers and handwritten notes.
Can you feel my own tears falling?
Falling down beside your praying hands?
I’m reading over your shoulder,
Lines you’d hoped I’d never see.

Baby, just forget me.

You’re chasing a ghost,
Nothing but a ghost.
I’m just a vision from your past,
A memory fading fast.
This it the end of the rope for us,
Bleeding hearts beat silent.

You’ve gone too many nights without sleep,
Painting canvases and penning poetry on your walls.
Sobbing in the cemetery
Laying roses on my grave,
I’m sitting here with you
Waiting for you to give it up.

Baby, just forget me.

You’re chasing a ghost,
Nothing but a ghost.
I’m just a vision from your past,
A memory fading fast.
This it the end of the rope for us,
Bleeding hearts beat silent.

Far away,
I’m so far away now.
Heaven’s nothing compared to you,
The winds blow me away.
My pages are still empty of you.
