The Ghost of Love

This cant go on anymore,
the truth, it must be told.
I sacrificed my only love
and now my lifes grown cold

Call it selfish, call it greed,
forever I'll be alone
with thoughts of what could have been,
if only faith I'd shown.

The nights are long, my days drag on
reading letters, never sent.
The ghost of love, it walks these halls,
of yearning, never spent.

To hold you close once again,
and look into your eyes.
I'd say the things I should have said,
and take back all the lies.

But now you're gone, and in your place,
is the lonely bitter pain,
of the love I had and gave away,
and a ghost, who has your name.
