My body sinks to the bottom, you were the last one to know Never needed a home but had nowhere else to go Now I'm drifting to pieces, time is slipping away Always thought you would end up finding a reason to stay
In this house I built for you All our plans would follow suit You'd forget who you had been and finally give in
Is it too late to go back down that road? Or take the back roads, we're not the same no Tell me I'm not dreaming again Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost Could build a brand new home Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost
You gave me reason to follow a plan to build myself up I did it all just to show you had nowhere else to go Now the winter is coming and time is slipping away You're getting hard to convince that you have a reason to stay
In this house I built for you All our plans have fallen through I forget who we have been and finally give in
Is it too late to go back down that road? Or take the back roads, we're not the same no Tell me I'm not dreaming again Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost Could build a brand new home Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost
I made a fool of myself, how I've been backwards Still you're the only one I ever want to call my own We can drive out of this hell, we'll take the back roads Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost
Is it too late to go back down that road? Or take the back roads, we're not the same no Tell me I'm not dreaming again Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost Could build a brand new home Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost
