My body sinks to the bottom

You were the last one to know

Never needed a home but had nowhere else to go

Now I'm drifting to pieces

Time is slipping away

Always thought you would end up finding a reason to stay

In this house I built for you

All our plans would follow suit

You'd forget who you had been and finally give in

Is it too late to go back down that road?

Or take the backroads, we're not the same no

Tell me I'm not dreaming again

Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost

Could build a brand new home

You gave me reason to follow a plan to build myself up

I did it all just to show you you had nowhere else to go

Now the winter is coming and time is slipping away

You're getting hard to convince that you have a reason to stay

In this house I built for you

All our plans have fallen through

I forget who we have been and finally give in

Is it too late to go back down that road?

Or take the backroads, we're not the same no

Tell me I'm not dreaming again

Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost

Could build a brand new home

I made a fool of myself

How I've been backwards

Still you're the only one I ever want to call my own

We can drive out of this hell

We'll take the backroads

Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost

Is it too late to go back down that road?

Or take the backroads, we're not the same no

Tell me I'm not dreaming again

Our love is not a ghost, our love is not a ghost

Could build a brand new home
