heart haunt Lyrics

I still remember the look on your face

The first time that I saw you

You stood there and laughed with impossible grace

Oh I had to know you

The death of October loomed right round the corner

Fantastically dressed like a fox

My eyes grew quiet like cinnamon silently

Watching you begin to haunt me like a ghost

You pulled me in gently, my shipwreck your casualties

You promised to protect me

I told you I'd capsized, been trying to flip upright

These waters still working against me

The swells of surrender you laid down so tenderly

And told me that you understood

My breath grew quiet never seen so viably

Holding on tight while you calm me like only you could

I built us a house inside my over active heart

Hung up those golden lights that mimic the stars

But they opened up the ceiling now the roof is dripping rust

And I can feel you leaving slipping into the dust

I still remember the look on your face

The last time that I saw you

You stood there in blue with impossible haste

A jet stream I couldn't catch you

The silence of summer, bittersweet surrender

Choking back you running hot

My mind grew louder screaming to run after you

When I tried to move I got stuck

Now I haunt you like a ghost

Always reaching for a home
