Ghostly Heart

Fire, fire for you
Burning in my bones
The longer that you’re gone
Pictures, pictures of you
Ten thousand words
For each wouldn’t do

And I know we’re better off when we’re apart
And fondness grows with absence
That’s what makes it hard
Time and distance have a way
Of changing who you are
And the stories just get better with age
Memories only fan the flame
In my ghostly heart

Nights, nights spent with you
They’ve all turned
A deeper shade of blue
Warmth, the warmth of your embrace
Burns like a brand
That was made just yesterday

And I know we’re better off when we’re apart
And fondness grows with absence
That’s what makes it hard
Time and distance have a way
Of changing who you are
And the stories just get better with age
Memories only fan the flame
In my ghostly heart

And I know we’re better off when we’re apart
And fondness grows with absence
That’s what makes it hard
Time and distance have a way
Of changing who you are
And the stories just get better with age
Memories only fan the flame
In my ghostly heart
In my ghostly heart
