Giving Up The Ghost

Giving up the ghost

I can't say what hurts the most

The fact that I am losing you

The way that it's so easy to

Love was never meant to be

A passing part of our history

It's a memory at the most

We should know not to count on those by now

How's it come to this

Freedom in the loneliness of letting go

I thought that I would never know

I did not expect

To lay my head to rest

And wake up more alone

With someone I no longer know

The dear I loved died long ago

Giving up the ghost

I held on long enough to know

There comes a time in letting go

I hate to let you down

But looks, my love, like the time for us is now

How's it come to this

Freedom in the loneliness of letting go

I thought that I would never know

I did not expect

To lay my head to rest

And wake up more alone

With someone I no longer know

Dear, I loved that, long ago

Giving up the ghost

Giving up

I am tired

I'm sorry, love

But I tried

Love was never meant to be

A passing part of our history

It's a memory at the most

We should know not to count on those by now

How's it come to this

Freedom in the loneliness of letting go

I thought that I would never know

I did not expect

To lay my head to rest

And wake up more alone

With someone I no longer know

The dear I loved died long ago

The dear I loved died long ago
