Ghost Face

Текст песни

[Verse 1] Your coat still hangs beside the stairs One sleeve turned out, the lining torn I pass the hall and catch your face Where the old mirror’s silver’s worn [Pre-Chorus] I stop with one hand on the frame The house holds still; I say your name [Chorus] Ghost face, waiting in the glass I turn around, there’s no one there Ghost face, pale as winter ash You look at me like you still care I shut my eyes, I count to five Open them—you’re still inside [Verse 2] The kettle clicks; the pipes complain A floorboard gives beneath my heel Your little blue cup by the sink Has kept the ring your fingers sealed [Pre-Chorus] I tell myself the light is wrong Then hear your footsteps come along [Chorus] Ghost face, waiting in the glass I turn around, there’s no one there Ghost face, pale as winter ash You look at me like you still care I shut my eyes, I count to five Open them—you’re still inside [Bridge] If you came back to say goodbye Why do you vanish when I try? I leave the hallway lamp turned on And sleep before the night is gone [Final Chorus] Ghost face, waiting in the glass I turn around, there’s no one there Ghost face, pale as winter ash You look at me like you still care I shut my eyes, I count to five Open them—you’re still inside [Outro] I leave the hallway lamp turned on Your coat still hangs And I move on
