Please note that from November 2023's Hindsight is 50/50 onwards, Uschenko started using Ghostwoman as the preferred spelling for the project. The albums are now listed on streaming platforms under that slightly altered moniker, which means that most scrobbles will now go to Ghostwoman instead.

Ghost Woman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We all just wanna know if you're doin alright
Just a little lie shouldn't hurt
But i don't know if i could hold you up
If i could leave you alone
Would i?
And there will always be someone to go home and see
Somebody come home to me
Trust me babe i know it too
The only time that i feel free
is lying next to you
And Jreaming too
I should leave you alone
The lyrics to "Jreaming" by Ghost Woman seem to speak to the conflict the singer is feeling between their desire to hold onto a friendship while also being unable to ignore the dishonesty of their friend. They start by asking their friend where they've been and expressing concern about their well-being. However, they also acknowledge that their friend has been deceptive and that they don't know if they can continue to support them in their actions. They ponder whether it would be better to just leave their friend alone.
The singer then goes on to express how much they value their partner (presumably a romantic interest) and how this is the one time when they feel truly free - "lying next to you and Jreaming too." It becomes clear that the singer is grappling with identity, honesty, and relationships, wondering if they should continue to put energy towards their friendship or if it's time to let go and focus on what really matters.
The use of "Jreaming" as a play on words, could potentially mean "dreaming" or something deeper. The line "Somebody come home to me" suggests perhaps the singer has felt alone or abandoned in the past. The lyrics as a whole evoke a sense of melancholy and introspection, inviting the listener to consider their own honest relationships and what truly brings them joy.
