The Ghost In You
BT Feat. Amelia June Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The man in my shoes runs a life
All the papers lie tonight
But falling over you
Is the news of the day

Oh, angels fall like rain
And love is all of heaven way
Inside you the time moves and she don't fade
The ghost in you she don't fade

The race is on, I'm on your side
But hearing you my engines die
I'm in the mood for you
Oh, for running away

All the stars come down in you
And love, love, love you can't give it away
Inside you the time moves and she don't fade

The ghost in you she don't fade
Inside you the time moves
She don't fade away
Don't you know she don't fade

Don't you go it makes no sense
And all these talking supermen
Just take away the time, just to get it away
Oh, ain't it just like the rain

'Cause love, love, love, love, love is only heaven away
Inside you the time moves and she don't fade
The ghost in you, she don't fade away

Inside you the time moves
And she don't fade away
The ghost in you, she don't fade

The man in my shoes runs a life
All the papers lie tonight
But falling over you
Is the news of the day





And love will not fade away
And love, love, love will not fade away

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "The Ghost in You" by BT featuring Amelia June is a love song that describes the overwhelming effect of falling in love. The song starts by stating that the man in the singer's shoes is leading a fulfilling life despite the lies that permeate society. However, the news of the day is falling in love with someone, which is all-consuming and exhilarating. The chorus talks about how love is like rain and how it pours down like angels. The person in love holds onto it tightly, not wanting to let go, as the song notes that "she don't fade."


The second verse talks about how being around the person one loves can cause one to lose focus and motivation, as heard in the lyric "hearing you, my engines die." Nevertheless, the desire to be with this person is strong, and there is a need to run away with them. The chorus repeats, reinforcing the idea that love is all-consuming and unrelenting. The bridge of the song makes reference to the distractions and pressures of the outside world, but ultimately, love will endure and "will not fade" away.


Line by Line Meaning

The man in my shoes runs a life
I am living a life that is not my own, someone else is controlling it


All the papers lie tonight
The news is fake and manipulated


But falling over you
I am deeply in love with you


Is the news of the day
My love for you is the most important thing happening today


Oh, angels fall like rain
Hope and positivity are all around us


And love is all of heaven way
Love is the most divine and beautiful thing


Inside you the time moves and she don't fade
You are always moving forward and never fading away


The ghost in you she don't fade
Your spirit and essence will always remain intact


The race is on, I'm on your side
We are working together towards a common goal

Your words have a powerful and emotional impact on me


I'm in the mood for you
I am feeling strongly attracted to you


All the stars come down in you
You are the most important and influential person in my life

And all these talking supermen
People who think they know everything are not to be trusted


Just take away the time, just to get it away
Some people try to take away other people's time for their own selfish reasons


Oh, ain't it just like the rain
Life can be unpredictable and uncontrollable


Cause love, love, love, love, love is only heaven away
Love is the closest thing to heaven we can experience on earth


And love will not fade away
Love is eternal and will always remain
