Ghost in the Sheets

Ghost in the Sheets
(Verse 1)
I woke up in the dark,
Cold sheets where you used to lie,
The smell of your perfume,
Still hanging in the air, but it’s all a lie.
I reach for your side, but it’s empty now,
And the silence is louder than you ever were.
You said you’d always be mine,
But I found out last night, I was just a blur.
(Pre-Chorus)
Who was that body you held tight?
Whose voice was it that kept you up all night?
You promised me you’d never stray,
But now I’m lying here, thrown away.
(Chorus)
There’s a ghost in the sheets,
I’m not the one you need.
Your love’s gone, I can’t compete,
With the one who took my place,
I can’t erase the trace,
Of the ghost in the sheets,
Where you used to be.
(Verse 2)
I can feel the shadows of your lies,
Like cold hands across my heart.
I’m drowning in the memory of you,
But it’s too late to restart.
You left me hanging on to empty words,
While you gave someone else your soul.
Now I’m just a page that you turned,
And I’m the one left in the cold.
(Pre-Chorus)
Who did you kiss when I wasn’t there?
Who’s been sleeping with your heart, unaware?
You told me forever, then walked away,
Now I’m stuck in this bed with yesterday.
(Chorus)
There’s a ghost in the sheets,
I’m not the one you need.
Your love’s gone, I can’t compete,
With the one who took my place,
I can’t erase the trace,
Of the ghost in the sheets,
Where you used to be.
(Bridge)
I hear your laugh in the silence,
Feel your touch in the emptiness,
But it’s not you anymore,
Just a phantom I can’t forget.
I thought we were forever,
But now I see the truth,
I’m lying next to memories,
Of someone who’s not you.
(Chorus)
There’s a ghost in the sheets,
I’m not the one you need.
Your love’s gone, I can’t compete,
With the one who took my place,
I can’t erase the trace,
Of the ghost in the sheets,
Where you used to be.
(Outro)
Now I’m haunted by your lies,
Staring at the empty skies,
And there’s nothing left but me,
And the ghost in the sheets.
