Haunted
Vaughn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's a ghost of you,
Within' my haunted heart,
Ghost of you, my lost romance,
Lips that laugh, eyes that dance.
Haunted heart, won't let me be,
Dreams repeat a sweet
Dreams are dust, it's you who must
Belong to me,
And thrill my haunted heart,
Be still, my haunted heart.
The lyrics of Vaughn's song "Haunted" convey a profound feeling of longing and nostalgia. The first stanza sets the stage for a separation, where even though two souls are apart during the night, one's presence lingers like a ghost within the singer's heart. This ghost represents a lost romance, bringing to mind the memories of the past.
The second stanza refers to the haunting nature of the heart, which refuses to let go of these memories. Dreams become a recurring theme, as they repeat a sweet yet melancholic song to the singer. The dreams serve as a reminder of the past love, but they are only fleeting illusions that leave behind a sense of loneliness.
The third stanza adds depth to the yearning and desire felt by the singer. The dreams are likened to dust, insignificant and transient. It is the person the singer longs for, not the dreams themselves. The words "you who must belong to me" express a sense of possession, highlighting the deep connection and intense longing the singer has for their lost love.
In the final line, the singer implores their haunted heart to be still. This plea suggests a simultaneous struggle to move forward and to quiet the ache that lingers within. The haunted heart symbolizes the lingering pain of lost love, which continues to affect the singer despite the passing of time. The overall tone of the lyrics evokes a bittersweet longing, capturing the haunting quality of lost romance and the difficulties of letting go.

In the night, though we're apart
During the darkness, even though we are physically separated
There's a ghost of you
There is a lingering presence of you
Within' my haunted heart
Embedded deep within my tormented emotions
Ghost of you, my lost romance
The remnants of our past love, now vanished
Lips that laugh, eyes that dance
The joyful expressions of your lips and eyes
Haunted heart, won't let me be
My troubled heart constantly troubles me
Dreams repeat a sweet but lonely song to me
My dreams reiterate a bittersweet and lonesome melody
Dreams are dust, it's you who must belong to me
Dreams eventually fade away, but it is you who should be mine
And thrill my haunted heart
And bring excitement to my haunted emotions
Be still, my haunted heart
Remain calm, my tormented emotions
