Lyrics
<poem> You sent a text It’s like the wind changed your mind We were best friends Yeah, we were building a life
With every kiss and every letter Every promise of forever Oh, but you hit “send” And disappeared in front of my eyes
(Chorus) And now you’re just a ghost When I look back, never would have known that You could be so cold Like a stranger, vanish like a vapor
There’s just an echo where your heart used to be Now I see it clearly And there’s just a pillow where your head used to sleep My vision’s 20/20 I see through you now
Something has died Now that I have made up my mind I’ll be alright It doesn’t haunt me at night
‘Cause every gift and every letter Every promise of forever Now, is out of sight Like you were never alive
(Chorus) And now you’re just a ghost When I look back, never would have known that You could be so cold Like a stranger, vanish like a vapor
There’s just an echo where your heart used to be Now I see it clearly And there’s just a pillow where your head used to sleep My vision’s 20/20 I see through you now,now,now,now,now. Now,now,now,now,now
So, rest in peace I’ll see you on the other side
(Chorus) And now you’re just a ghost When I look back, never would have known that You could be so cold Like a stranger, vanish like a vapor
There’s just an echo where your heart used to be Now I see it clearly And there’s just a pillow where your head used to sleep My vision’s 20/20 I see through you now <poem>
