Ghost

A Poem by Brenda Woods
"

Song lyrics.

"
I'm on the edge of life and death
And you catch me when I fall
I'm still breathing, barely hanging on
Right beside you, but I'm not here at all

Might as well be gone
I'm just a ghost to you now


I'm walking, I'm living in the shadows of my dreams
But back in reality, next to you I sleep
I'm just a ghost, a ghost now
A faded echo of what I used to be
So don't wait for me


Not much point hanging on to your regrets
You were the best part of me
If only I could manage to let you know
That you were the light that set me free


Not much point sticking round
I'm just a ghost to you now


I'm walking, I'm living in the shadows of my dreams
But back in reality, next to you I sleep
I'm just a ghost, a ghost now
A faded echo of what I used to be
So don't wait for me


Oh you've always stood by me
But you don't have to stay here anymore
This time can't be turned back
These wounds can't be erased
This is goodbye...


I'm walking, I'm living in the shadows of my dreams
And for the last time, I've gone to sleep
I'm just a ghost, a ghost now
All I am to you is a memory
So don't wait for me
