You used to fill the air Every corner of this space Now the silence feels Like it's wearing your face I can trace your shadow In the fading light But it disappears With the coming night The words we said They echo still A broken record A bitter thrill Now you're a ghost in the room A faint melody out of tune I reach for you But there's nothing there Just the weight of the love We couldn't repair The pictures On the wall don't meet my eyes They're frozen memories I can't revise Every time I try To move along I hear your voice In an old, sad song The ties we broke They linger yet A haunting chorus I can't forget Now you're a ghost in the room A faint melody out of tune I reach for you But there's nothing there Just the weight of the love We couldn't repair (Why do we hold on so tight?) (To pieces we can't make right?) (It's not your fault It's not mine too) (But the cracks They only grew) Now you're a ghost in the room A faint melody out of tune I reach for you But there's nothing there Just the weight of the love We couldn't repair A ghost in the room A fleeting trace A love that time cannot erase But I'll carry on As shadows fade Through the silence Through the ache
