Haunted
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I hear the beating of your wings
As if you're playing on my strings
In mysterious ways
You draw me in
To a love
Beyond all understanting
Beyond my reach
So far away
But it seems
Like only yesterday
I'm haunted
Haunted
Is that what you wanted
All that's left
Is the ghost of your smile
It stays awhile
Then fades away
I hear your footsteps on the ground
Tempting me to turn around
It's just the echo
Of a disenchanted lover
Shuffling aimlessly
Homeward bound
To empty rooms
And picture frames
And friends
Who can't recall our names
I'm haunted
Haunted
Is that what you wanted
All that's left
Is the ghost of your smile
It stays a while
And fades away
