New Orleans - Former Ghosts

our locked eyes and your shy glance away

the way your hand fits in mine

clutching your ring

the cold side of the bed

your perfume on my sheets

don’t let these days stretch into weeks

a missed call

your missed voice

a missed chance at real happiness

candle light

a bottle of wine

my days are long

and my nights i don’t remember

it’s my fault

i fell in love in the first place

if you leave this city

take me with you

or don’t look back

if you leave this city

take me with you

or don’t look back

a box sled for two

summer night swims

look in my eyes and ask me what i’m thinking

i’ll tell you it’s you and only you

we are denying our hearts

and untouched lips

i have a plan

we’ll leave here together

have that life we always dreamt of

wooden floors and chandeliers

and you can tell me i’m not dreaming

it’s all my fault

i fell in love in the first place

it’s all my fault

i fell in love in the first place

if you leave this city

take me with you

or don’t look back

if you leave this city

take me with you

or don’t look back

if you leave this city take me with you or don’t look back

if you leave this city take me with you or don’t look back

it’s all my fault

i fell in love in the first place.

it’s all my fault

i fell in love in the first place.
