A Quiet Ghost

Lyrics

[Intro]


(Slow, melancholic fingerpicked acoustic guitar intro)


[Verse 1]
I saw you standing there, in the fading light
A quiet masterpiece, shining through the night
You move so easily, like a summer breeze
While I am shivering, falling to my knees

[Chorus]
But I'm just a ghost in the room
A shadow in your perfect view
What am I doing here?
I don't belong near you

[Verse 2]
I wish I had the words, to make you turn around
To make you notice me, standing on this ground
But you're a silver star, burning far away
And I'm just broken glass, fading into gray

[Chorus]
But I'm just a ghost in the room
A shadow in your perfect view
What am I doing here?
I don't belong near you

[Bridge]


(Instrumentation swells, vocals rising to an intense, emotional belt)
And you shine...
You shine like gold!
While I am cold...
Yeah, I am cold!
Just let me fade away...
Let me fade!
Fade away...

[Outro]


(Acoustic guitar slows down, vocals return to a soft, breathy whisper)
Whatever makes you smile
Whatever keeps you warm
You're so beautiful...
I wish I was your storm
But I'm just a ghost...
A quiet ghost...
I don't belong here.
