lyrics

You were only sheltered by
The things you don't remember
I let myself believe our future
Would call us away again

Places where we used to lay in
Warm embraces listening to the
Lullabies of lonely ghosts
I thought I saw your shadow over there

I never wanted to be playing for our souls
I should've heard you say you'd try
I never thought you'd leave us standing by the doors
I should've heard you say goodbye

In another life or two
I'll see you when I'll least expect
I imagine what I'll say but
Don't you know it's all pretend

The places where we used to lay in
Warm embraces listening to the
Lullabies of lonely ghosts
I thought I saw your shadow over there

I never wanted to be playing for our souls
I should've heard you say you'd try
I never thought you'd leave us standing by the doors
I should've heard you say goodbye

I'm running on the other side of you
Calling out to you, I'm still a fool
The brighter that you burn, I'll see the truth
It's true, oh we were meant to lose

I'm running on the other side of you
Calling out to you, I'm still a fool
The brighter that you burn, I'll see the truth
It's true

I never wanted to be playing for our souls
I should've heard you say you'd try
I never thought you'd leave us standing by the doors
I should've heard you say goodbye
