Have you ever been haunted
The way i have been by you?
And have you ever felt
The measure of the days that i've spent waiting
Pining for you?
I can't see the sun for the daylight
I can't feel your breath for the wind
I don't wanna step from these shadows
'til you're comin' back again
I've dammed the emotions
To keep my lanterns lit
I'm shaken by this longing
That course through my veins
In my mind i can't make sense of it
I can't see the sun for the daylight
I can't feel your breath for the wind
I get so used to these shadows
Are you comin' back again?
Do we give up this search and turn out the light?
And give up this holy ghost that rattles through the night?
I can't see the sun for the daylight
I can't feel your breath for the wind
I don't wanna step from these shadows
'til you're comin' back again
I can't see the sun for the daylight
I can't feel your breath for the wind
I get so used to these shadows
Will you chase away these shadows
When you come back again?
When you come back again
When you come back again
When you come back again
When you come back
When you come back again
When you come back
When you come back again
