I drove a thousand miles just to see you smile, Sleepless nights on Greyhound seats, counting every mile. You called me “home” in June but by February Home was just a word you left in smoke and memory... I brought your coffee, knew your favorite song, Wore my heart like a leash… you just held it too long. You kissed me like a promise… left me like a ghost! Valentine’s morning... just me and the coast Of your empty bed, your phone on silent tone, While I was down on my knees, you were already gone..., Yeah, I begged… I bled… I broke in two But the world didn’t stop… so neither did you. Remember how the streetlights painted gold On your window sill the nights we stayed up cold? We talked ‘til dawn like time would never run… But you packed your “always” in a suitcase by noon. I kept your letters. Burned ‘em in July. Now your name’s just static in a rearview sky. You don’t own my silence… You don’t own my sky. You kissed me like a promise… left me like a ghost! But I’m not that boy who trembled at your door. Valentine’s ashes? Yeah, I swept ‘em clean Now I walk alone… but I walk free. Yeah, I loved… I lost… but I’m still alive And your “forever” fits someone else tonight. Happy Valentine’s… ghost...
