You left the sweater on my chair
I thought I'd throw it out, but it's still there
And every night, it smells like you
Guess some things don't fade like they're supposed to
I hear your footsteps in the hall
But no one's there when I turn on the light
Maybe I'm haunted after all
By someone who's still alive
What do I do with the silence?
It's louder than your voice
You're gone, but you're not gone
You're just a ghost in my room
I keep forgetting we ended
Keep pretending we didn't
Still setting the table for two
But there's only me, and the ghost of you
You changed your number, changed your hair
But in my dreams, you're still everywhere
I cleaned the frames off all the walls
But your shadow's dancing in the hall
I thought by now I'd be okay
But your coffee cup is still by the sink
I try to smile, I try to pray
But you linger in everything
What do I do with the silence?
It's louder than your voice
You're gone, but you're not gone
You're just a ghost in my room
I keep forgetting we ended
Keep pretending we didn't
Still setting the table for two
But there's only me, and the ghost of you
I don't hate you, I don't want you back
I just miss the way we were
Even if you came knocking now
I wouldn't know who you were
So what do I call this feeling?
It's not love, it's not grief
You're gone, but you never really moved
You're just a ghost in my room
Still feel your breath in the air
Like you're sitting in that chair
But I know that it's only the truth
That it's just me, and the ghost of you
Just me, and the ghost of you
