"Ghost" lyrics

"Ghost"

Keep the light, keep the light, keep the light on
So you know, so you know my love's not gone
If I pour, if I pour enough to drink
I can feel, I can feel you next to me
Everywhere I go
I see your ghost, every alley, every road
I feel you close, not enough to hold

And all I do, I see you
I thought I saw you at a show, but no
So I dance alone

I'm watching you fade
Hoping you stay
I'm watching you fade
Begging you please don't go away
I can't have you, don't leave me
I'll have you, in between
I'll have you, in between, I'll have you (Please don't fade away)

Go to sleep, go to sleep, to see your face
I wake up, I wake up, don't see a trace
I have tried, I have tried to erase you
But that's a crime, that's a crime I just can't do
Everywhere I go
I see your ghost, every alley, every road
I feel you close, not enough to hold

And all I do, I see you
I thought I saw you at a show, but no
So I dance alone

I'm watching you fade
Hoping you stay
I'm watching you fade
Begging you please don't go away
I can't have you, don't leave me
I'll have you, in between
I'll have you, in between, I'll have you (Please don't fade away)

I can't have you, don't leave me
I'll have you, in between
I'll have you, in between
I'll have you, in between
I'm watching you fade
Hoping you stay
I'm watching you fade
Begging you please don't go away

I can't have you, don't leave me
I'll have you, in between
I'll have you, in between (Please don't fade)
I'll have you, in be—

Singer Mandy Lee told Paper Magazine about "Ghost" on the 23rd of July 2020, "Marc wrote this upbeat guitar driven riff, and I wonder if I subconsciously wrote about feeling followed and haunted by a ghost/presence of an absent lover because he's obsessed with paranormal activity. But jokes aside, pulling from the post-chorus, 'if I can't have you completely/ I'll have you in-between' is something I'd like to never settle for ever again."
