"The Ghost Of You" lyrics

You're staring at me, your eyes are lead
You speak a language, that's cold and dead
I call your name out, but you're not you
We're lost in bad dream
And I've got nothing to bargain with
Your sculptured face, set in amethyst
You walk straight at me, but you're not here
You're part of the slipstream

Yes, I'm in love with the ghost of you
But I just can't seem to hold you
You're always passing through
Yes, I'm in love with the ghost of you
But I just can't seem to hold you
You're always passing through
Passing through

If there was one thing, that I could do
If time would move me, back in towards you
But time's an arrow, that whistles past, and turns
Present to history

Yes, I'm in love with the ghost of you
But I just can't seem to hold you
You're always passing through
Yes, I'm in love with the ghost of you
But I just can't seem to hold you
You're always passing through
Passing through

Nothing hurts like
Nothing left
What once was more
Once more is less
Nothing hurts like
Nothing left
Nothing left...
Nothing left...
Nothing hurts like
Nothing left
What once was more
Once more is less
Nothing hurts like
Nothing left
Nothing left...
Nothing left...

Yes, I'm in love with the ghost of you
But I just can't seem to hold you
You're always passing through
Yes, I'm in love with the ghost of you
But I just can't seem to hold you
You're always passing through
Passing through
