She Just Couldn't Stay Songtext
Sometimes a dream with haunt me all day
I walk around feeling something has changed
I catch myself thinking you feel as I do
Like somehow the dream is haunting you too
But I know the longing
Is mine and mine alone
I keep forgetting
That I′m in love with a ghost
The person you were
I know you're not her
She went away
She went away
I still want to say
"Why did you change?"
When I know full well
There′s no need to tell
The person you were
I know you're not her
She just couldn't stay
All of those letters of pain and love -
Did we burn too bright, too bright to last?
Were we destined always for a broken heart each?
That we′re now worlds apart
Sometimes it seems
When I′m around you
One thing becomes clear
The person I think of
Every day is elsewhere
I walk around feeling something has changed
I catch myself thinking you feel as I do
Like somehow the dream is haunting you too
But I know the longing
Is mine and mine alone
I keep forgetting
That I′m in love with a ghost
The person you were
I know you're not her
She went away
She went away
I still want to say
"Why did you change?"
When I know full well
There′s no need to tell
The person you were
I know you're not her
She just couldn't stay
All of those letters of pain and love -
Did we burn too bright, too bright to last?
Were we destined always for a broken heart each?
That we′re now worlds apart
Sometimes it seems
When I′m around you
One thing becomes clear
The person I think of
Every day is elsewhere
