Sleeping With a Ghost

When your soul left the house You left your body lying next to me They never carried you out All of the colors drained right from your cheeks Your eyes are open but they never see Your mouth repeats the same words back to me You're just an echo of the way you used to be Your skin grows colder every night beneath the sheets When I'm with you I miss you the most I've been sleeping with a ghost Ooh, there's nothing left here for us The walls are empty and the lights turned down And as I lie in the dust Just breathing in the ashes of a fire that long went out I check your pulse but I feel only mine How could I have missed it when you flatlined You're just an echo of the way you used to be Your skin grows colder every night beneath the sheets When I'm with you I miss you the most I've been sleeping with a ghost You're just an echo of the way you used to be Your skin grows colder every night beneath the sheets When I'm with you I miss you When I'm with you I miss you When I'm with you I miss you the most
