Haunted
Coven 13 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All around the room
Just me and you
Then we walked in the garden
Sharing our dreams
And smelling perfume
But it happened too quickly
Were you real or did I imagine
You seemed to go with the light of dawn
Today I thought I saw you
Why does it all seem
So very strange
I'm haunted by these things
They drive me crazy
Maybe insane
[Chorus]
Then someone smiled at me
And I don't know
If that's good or bad
I'm haunted by these things
Could it be the moon
Or have I gone mad
I remember your kisses
They were so sweet
Soft on my face
As to feel you in my arms
Intoxicated
My heart starts to race
Every moment a lifetime
And I must spend them all with you
Sun embracing the shadows
They all turn to dust
Now what do I do
Today I thought I saw you
Why does it all seem
So very strange
I'm haunted by these things
They drive me crazy
Maybe insane
[Chorus]

Line by Line Meaning
We danced a waltz here
We were dancing a waltz in this location
All around the room
We danced throughout the entire room
Just me and you
No one was dancing with us
Then we walked in the garden
After dancing, we went for a walk in the garden
Sharing our dreams
We talked about our dreams and aspirations
And smelling perfume
We enjoyed the fragrance of the garden
But it happened too quickly
Our time together was short
I blinked my eyes and you were gone
You disappeared before I could fully process what was happening
Were you real or did I imagine
I'm unsure if you were ever really there or if I just imagined you
You seemed to go with the light of dawn
You left so suddenly, it felt like you disappeared into the dawn
Today I thought I saw you
I saw someone who resembled you today
Why does it all seem
I'm confused about what's happening
So very strange
It all feels surreal
I'm haunted by these things
I am constantly thinking about these strange occurrences
They drive me crazy
I feel like I'm losing my mind
Maybe insane
I'm questioning my sanity
Then someone smiled at me
Another person smiled at me
And I don't know
I'm uncertain
If that's good or bad
I'm unsure if the smile was positive or negative
Could it be the moon
I'm questioning if the moon is affecting me in some way
Or have I gone mad
I'm wondering if I'm losing my grip on reality
I remember your kisses
I can recall the sensation of your kisses
They were so sweet
Our kisses were delightful
Soft on my face
Your kisses were gentle and tender
As to feel you in my arms
Your kisses made me feel like I was holding you in my arms again
Intoxicated
I was overwhelmed with emotion
My heart starts to race
My heart beats faster from these memories
Every moment a lifetime
Our moments together felt like an eternity
And I must spend them all with you
I wish to spend every moment with you
Sun embracing the shadows
The sun shining on the shadows created a beautiful scene
They all turn to dust
Everything fades away eventually
Now what do I do
I'm unsure how to move on from this
