There's A Ghost In My House
R. Dean Taylor Lyrics

There's a ghost in my house
He is haunted by the memories of his past relationship.

The ghost of your memories
He is reminded of the relationship with every memory he has of his ex.

The ghost of the love you took from me
He feels like his ex stole his ability to be loved.

Where our love used to be
The relationship they once had no longer exists.

Only shadows from the past I see
He can only remember the relationship as a shadow of its former self.

Time can't seem to erase
He is unable to forget his ex or the relationship they shared with each other.

The vision of your smiling face
Even though they are no longer together, he still remembers his ex's smile.

Though you found someone new
His ex has moved on and found someone else.

I can't get over you
He is unable to move past his ex and their relationship.

It keeps on haunting me (Ghost in my house)
The memories of his ex continue to bother him even now.

Just keeps on reminding me (Ghost in my house)
Every reminder of his ex and their relationship continues to affect him.

In my mind I know you're gone
He knows that his ex is no longer with him.

But my heart keeps holding on
His emotions are still attached to his ex and their past relationship.

To the memories of those happy times
He only remembers the good times they shared together.

To the love that once was mine
He is still hopeful that the love they shared can be rekindled.

Though we're far apart
Distance separates them now.

You're always in my heart
His ex still has an important place in his heart.

Still so deep in the heart of me
He has not been able to move on from his ex and the relationship they shared.

I just keep hearing your footsteps on the stairs
He imagines that his ex is still with him, even though she is not.

When I know there's no-one there
He knows that he is alone but still feels like his ex is with him.

Every day I love you more
Despite everything, his love for his ex continues to grow.

So much more than the day before
His love for his ex is increasing every day.

Sittin' in my easy chair
He is relaxed and thinking about his ex while sitting in his chair.

I feel your fingers running through my hair
He imagines that his ex is still with him and touching his hair.

Lookin' down in my coffee cup
He is lost in thought and looking into his coffee cup.

I think I see your face lookin' up
He is hopeful that he will see his ex's face when he looks into his coffee cup.

All alone in my gloom
He is lonely and sad without his ex.

You voice echoes through the room
He can still hear his ex's voice ringing in his memory.

And I can't hide (Ghost in my house)
He cannot escape the memories of his ex and their past relationship.

From the ghost of your love that's inside (Ghost in my house)
He is still haunted by the emotions he feels for his ex and the love they once shared.
