A Ghost You Can Never Quite Shake Off

November 20, 2011

Sittin’ in the park, sittin’ in the rain
Wondering about this mess we made
Sittin’ in the park, sittin’ in the rain
Just wondering

Sittin’ in the park, sittin’ in the rain
Wondering about this mess that we made
Sittin’ in the park, sittin’ in the rain
Just wondering

And it’s wet everywhere but where I sit
And I wonder how you will deal with it
Cuz Honey, I’m so tired of placing blame

Can’t you just hold my hand and I’ll hold your hand
And we can find some ground to stand
Where I’m not Satan and you’re not in the wrong

Sometimes I just want the past to be the past – I know you don’t see it like that
Sometimes I just want the past to be just that

Sometimes I want the blame to be just yours – I’m lying if I say I’m not keeping score
But I can’t deny I didn’t play you right off the board

When all is done and through is through
I keep coming back to the fact that I love you, I love you, I love you
And only you

Cuz no one in my whole sad damneded life has made me feel like I’m not alone but you
It’s only you
It’s only ever you

And I hope
That somewhere
You can hear me pouring my feelings out
Like a ghost you can never quite shake off
Cuz that’s what I’ve been living with for seven years
I see you everywhere
I see you in everything
You’re in every mix tape I make
You’re in every song I sing
And I feel you at night, you’re that hands that are holding me
You’re the hope
And the faith
That I could make it
Cuz I made it once with you
Baby it’s you
It’s only ever you

It stopped raining.
