I have a longing way down deep inside. I lay in bed alone and hold you tight. I tell myself that you are by my side. I deny knowing it's a perfect lie.
I close my eyes and see you lying there. I feel you as my fingers grasp at air. I get the feeling of hands in my hair, but you are just a ghost and are not near.
I find myself walking alone at night. I pretend you're with me, the sky a-light. Your hand upon my hand, it feels so right. I deny knowing it's a perfect lie.
I wish to have you standing right here above the city all the noise and fear. A shooting star goes by, oh hold me dear. But you are just a ghost and are not near.
I have a longing way down deep inside. I take the pills in hopes that I will die. And as death takes me I won't be alone. We'll be together like my dreams have shown!
I close my eyes to find you standing there. My body lying still, not breathing air. My wish has been fulfilled now you are near 'cause I am just a ghost like you are dear...
