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 soon You'd forget who you had been

And finally given Is it too late to go back down that road?

Or take the back roads?

We're not the same now Tell me I'm not dreaming again A love is not a ghost A love is not a ghost

Oh, oh

Could build a brand new home

Oh, our love is not a ghost

You gave me reason to follow, a plan to build myself up Did it all just to show 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'll build for you all our plans

I've fallen through Should I forget who we have been?

And finally given Is it too late to go back down that road?

Or take the back roads?

We're not the same now Tell me I'm not dreaming again A love is not a ghost A love is not a ghost

Oh, oh

Compelled to break

A life is not a ghost

I made a fool of myself, I went a bit backwards Still you're the only one I ever wanna call my own We can drive out of this town, we'll take the back roads 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 back road?

We're not the same now Tell me I'm not dreaming again A love is not a ghost A love is not a ghost

Oh, oh

Could build a brand new home, oh

Oh, a life is not a ghost, a life is not a ghost

Oh, oh, oh

Can build a brand new home.

A love that's not a ghost
