| The queen of self-sufficiency met an island of a man
|
| Keep away and run away now, hand in hand
|
| This unexpected alchemy, waves upon a burning shore
|
| I rise and crash in front of you, you burn some more
|
| But no, you didn’t know
|
| About the ghosts left inside of me, baby
|
| No, they didn’t show
|
| Until your love began to lift me free
|
| And I feel guilty
|
| 'Cause when you lie your head upon my chest
|
| You feel the beating of my restless heart
|
| (Ooh, ooh)
|
| What used to be invisible, illuminated by a spark
|
| You guard the flame and tenderly hold back the dark
|
| But no, you didn’t know
|
| About the ghosts left inside of me, did you, babe?
|
| Feeling so alone in the midst of this uncertainty
|
| I can’t help but feel guilty
|
| When you lie your head upon my chest
|
| You feel the beating of my restless heart
|
| Racin' mind reeling with memories
|
| The could’ve, should’ve beens, all through the night
|
| Love, help me sleep tonight
|
| Love, help me breathe tonight
|
| Love, will you stay by my side
|
| In this love, this haunted love?
|
| (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
|
| Love (Ooh, ooh, woah)
|
| 'Cause in the middle of the night
|
| It’ll take you by surprise
|
| So, will you hold me, love
|
| In this haunted love?
|
| In the middle of the night
|
| It’ll take you by surprise
|
| So let me hold you, love
|
| In this haunted love |
