Haunted By Me


Once I believed you

Learned my lesson too many times

Thought I could get it

Changin’ from the wrong that I wanted right


And now I’m payin’

A price I don’t owe, this is insane

Workin’ so hard and strugglin’

Through the bitter stab of this pain


Tossin’ and turnin’

Like a sailboat thrown in the storm

I know I gotta get together

But after that flashback I’m no short of torn


Pathetic impulses

To grab your pictures and cry

I can’t live normally

‘Cause you took my heart are leaving me to die


Look at what you’ve to me

Look at it closely, can you see?

Do you feel proud now that I’m lonely?

Are you satisfied now that you’ve deserted me?

Gone off somewhere else, are you in ecstasy

Lovin’ another girl, does she do it better than me?

Are you breezin’ through life easily?

Oh, enjoy it while it lasts ‘cause you’ll be haunted by me


Layin’ sprawled on the floor

Too weak and weary to pull through the day

People asking how I am

I fake a smile, but I have nothing good to say


Cheery as a graveyard

And all the pretty posies scattered

Tell me, everything between us

What of it to you actually mattered?


I can’t dream nice dreams

Thanks to you these nightmares never pass

And like this relationship

There’s a beacon of hope that won’t last


How foolish of me

To give this much trust to a man

Gets what he wants

And when he’s done he leaves ‘cause he can


Look at what you’ve to me

Look at it closely, can you see?

Do you feel proud now that I’m lonely?

Are you satisfied now that you’ve deserted me?

Gone off somewhere else, are you in ecstasy

Lovin’ another girl, does she do it better than me?

Are you breezin’ through life easily?

Oh, enjoy it while it lasts ‘cause you’ll be haunted by me


Oh, in the darkness when you’re kissing her neck

I’ll be watching close by when you’d least expect

So that when she calls your name and asks if you’re ok

You’ll be afraid to touch her again and make the same mistake

You won’t get any rest, I’ll be there

To bother your dreams so you remember me

The girl you left alone in despair

Broke my heart, you’ll feel my tears, hear my cries, my sighs

The pain of telling those awful lies

How could you ignore my tries

And disappear without any goodbyes?

So this is the deal now and how it goes

Is that from here and on and on I’ll be your personal ghost


Look at what you’ve to me

Look at it closely, can you see?

Do you feel proud now that I’m lonely?

Are you satisfied now that you’ve deserted me?

Gone off somewhere else, are you in ecstasy

Lovin’ another girl, does she do it better than me?

Are you breezin’ through life easily?

Oh, enjoy it while it lasts ‘cause you’ll be haunted by me

(x1)


Oh, hmm, you’ll be haunted by me
