I should've told you when I had the chance

Lost in the memories we don't have

I wanted to hold you in hopeless romance

Oh, you fade like a ghost

I've been from London to Aberdeen (Wow)

Inside a coupe and from inside a private limousine (Cool)

Do you think it really matters if I wear designer? (No)

'Cause I don't, if i don't have her, what's the point of finer things? (Things)

I'm ex nihilo like Augustine (Amen)

But I confess, I haven't been the best internally (Why not?)

I keep seeing two moons in my dreams (Again?)

Can you tell me what they really mean?

I should've told you when I had the chance

Lost in the memories we don't have

I wanted to hold you in hopeless romance

Oh, you fade like a ghost

Can you catch me when I fall? (Fall)

I'm in love with the idea (Idea)

Of who you are

I'm in love with the lie

I tried to look the other way

But I'm lying to myself

I never wanted it to end

I had no other option

I had to find a way to leave before you walked in

At the end, the chase was all I really wanted

But it's too late for that

You give heart attacks

And I find it hard to sleep

It's hard to sleep

'Cause I'm afraid of ghosts, and I can hear you talking

Blah, blah, blah, blah

So perpetual, you showed no sign of stopping (Stopping)

It's too late for that, can't you understand?

I should've told you when I had the chance

Told you, told you, I had the chance, I had the chance

Lost in the memories we don't have

Never had, we never had

I wanted to hold you in hopeless romance

Want to hold you, want to hold you, hopeless romance

Oh, you fade like a ghost

Like a ghost, like a ghost

You fade like a ghost

You fade like a ghost

Could at least just make it easy (Easy)

You know I hate being so needy (Needy)

Got my attention on a leash, and I don't want it back

Unintentionally acting creepy

Creepy, ah

In front of her, but she can't see me

Can't see me

I think she thinks I'm on the spectrum, oh

I'm pretty sure she wants to leave

Wants to leave

And I don't blame her
