How to Love a Ghost
Embracing Shadows: Loving the Unseen in 'How to Love a Ghost'Lyrics
I'm alone I'm alone again
I am currently experiencing loneliness once again.
There's a pain and it never ends
There is a persistent pain that doesn't go away.
Cause your still here inside of me
Despite attempts to move on, the person's presence is still within me.
Guess its a love that will never leave
It's a love that remains and doesn't fade.
I have to learn to let you go and leave your heart to follow
I must learn to let go and allow your heart to move forward.
You'll always be the one I need
You will always be the essential person in my life.
But I can't change tomorrow
However, I cannot alter what the future holds.
And its just another tear that rose
Another tear is shed, expressing emotional pain.
And it's just another string that broke
Another connection or bond has been broken.
And we've been trying hard to make it work
Despite efforts, the relationship struggles to succeed.
But every time we always start to burn
Repeated cycles of attempting to make it work, but it always ends in flames.
No I don't wanna feel like a candle light no I didn't wanna see you go
Resistance to feeling vulnerable or fragile like a candle flame.
But all I ever do is hurt us both
Despite not wanting to, actions cause pain for both.
Someone tell me how you love a ghost
A plea for guidance on how to love a presence that is no longer tangible.
I still dream that our paths will cross
Maintaining hope for a reunion in dreams.
But every door that I try is locked
Obstacles prevent the possibility of reconnecting.
You know I'll pretend
Pretending and imagining a life where the person is present again.
What this life would be like if I saw you once again
Reflecting on how life would be with the person once more.
And its just another tear that rose
Another tear falls, signifying ongoing emotional distress.
And it's just another string that broke
Another connection or bond has been severed.
And we've been trying hard to make it work
Continued efforts to salvage the relationship.
But every time we always start to burn
Despite attempts, the relationship continues to end in turmoil.
No I don't wanna feel like a candle light
Resisting the feeling of fragility, like a candle's light.
No I didn't wanna see you cry
Not wanting to witness the pain and tears of the other person.
All we ever do is say goodbye
The recurring pattern of saying goodbye.
Yeah, all we ever do is say goodbye
Emphasizing the repetitive nature of farewells.
So tell you've moved on
Seeking confirmation that the person has moved forward.
And tell me you don't need me
Desiring acknowledgment that the person doesn't require me anymore.
Every single word defeats me
Every word spoken defeats the speaker emotionally.
Well I don't wanna be forgot
Fear of being forgotten and replaced.
No I don't wanna find no other
Rejecting the idea of finding another person to replace the one lost.
Gonna feel this way forever
Anticipating that the emotional pain will persist indefinitely.
But it's just another tear that cry
Another tear is shed, representing ongoing emotional pain.
And it's just another string that broke
Another connection or bond has been broken.
And we've been trying hard to make it work
Continued efforts to make the relationship succeed.
And you tell me how it seems to hurt
Asking for an explanation of the apparent pain caused.
No I don't wanna feel like a candle light
Resisting the feeling of fragility, like a candle's light.
No I didn't wanna see you go
Not wanting to witness the departure of the other person.
All I ever do is hurt us both
Continuing to cause pain for both individuals.
Someone tell me how you love a ghost
Pleading for guidance on loving a presence that is no longer tangible.
