Echoes of a Fading Love: Embracing the Ghost Within
Lyrics
The ghost of you
The lingering presence or memories of someone who is no longer physically present.
Has almost faded now

You're drifting in and out
The person's presence in the speaker's life is inconsistent, fading in and out.
Of my life
The person has a recurring presence in the speaker's life despite being absent.
When leaves fall you'll come right back
During certain moments or seasons, the memories of the person resurface.
‘Cause I was yours for a little while
The speaker belonged to the person for a brief period in the past.
You will always be
The person will always be remembered as a ghostly presence that continues to exist.
A ghost who lives and breathes
The person, though absent, is described as living and breathing in the speaker's memories.
And you lay me down in reverie
The person is associated with dreams and deep contemplation, having a profound impact on the speaker's thoughts.
Every tear that falls
Each tear shed by the speaker is a reminder of the emotions associated with the person.
Remember me
A plea or desire to be remembered by the person through the tears shed.
And I thought I heard your haunting sigh

Like your love for me, you said it will never die
The person assured that their love would never die, creating lasting impressions on the speaker.
But I've grown accustomed to your long good-bye
The speaker has become accustomed to a prolonged farewell from the person.
I wish you were mine
An expression of longing, wishing the person was still part of the speaker's life.
Hey, you were mine
A reaffirmation of the past connection, emphasizing the person's past ownership of the speaker's heart.
You will always be
The person will always be remembered as a love that failed to understand the speaker's perspective.
A love who failed to see
The person's character was mysterious and emotionally distant.
It was cold inside your mystery
The person's emotional coldness is highlighted within their mysterious nature.
Every year that falls
Each passing year intensifies the memories of the person in the speaker's mind.
Remember me
A repetition of the plea to be remembered by the person through the years.
And I can't let you go
The speaker struggles to release the emotional attachment to the person.
I can't let you go
An emotional declaration that the speaker cannot move on from the person.
No
An emphatic "No" reinforces the difficulty of letting go.
You will always be
The person's memory persists as a ghostly presence, continuing to affect the speaker.
A ghost who lives and breathes
Reiteration of the person as a ghostly entity with a living and breathing impact.
And you broke my heart
The person caused emotional pain by breaking the speaker's heart.
But I'll make you see
A determination to make the person understand the impact of their actions.
Every tear that falls
Each tear represents a plea for the person to remember the emotional aftermath.
Remember me
A final plea to be remembered by the person through the tears shed.
Hey
An exclamation, possibly expressing frustration or longing.
Hey
A repeated expression, emphasizing the emotional weight of the speaker's plea.
Hey, yeah
A heightened emotional plea, accentuating the importance of being remembered.
Every tear that falls
A final repetition of the plea to be remembered through the tears shed.
Remember me
A concluding request to be remembered by the person through the emotional impact of tears.
