Haunted Dreams: Love Lost and Memories Found in Ghost by Ísis Dresch
Lyrics
Never wanted for this to become a thing
Expressing a lack of desire for the current situation to develop.
Never thought that i would have to sing
Unexpectedly finding oneself in a position where singing about a personal story becomes necessary.
About the story of the two of us
Acknowledging the need to narrate the story of the relationship between the speaker and the other person.
But when i met you just had that kind of swing
Describing the captivating and appealing nature of the other person.
That made me wanna in my finger place a ring
Feeling compelled to commit to a long-term relationship, symbolized by placing a ring on a finger.
And close the door for everyone else
Choosing to be exclusive and shutting out others for the sake of the relationship.
You're like a ghost in my dreams
Characterizing the impact of the person as lingering and haunting in dreams.
Hunting me when im asleep
Feeling pursued by memories even during sleep.
I dont know what to do to get you out of my head
Expressing confusion and a lack of understanding about how to move on.
You're like a ghost in my dreams
Reiterating the haunting presence of the person in dreams.
You used to make me your queen

But all i am right now is stuck with memories
Being currently stuck with memories and no longer enjoying the elevated status.

But all i am right now is stuck with memories

Now you're gone

There is no place for us
Highlighting the absence of a place for both individuals together.
Dancing alone

And its all because
Attributing the loneliness to an unspecified reason.
