lyrics
(verse: Bm, F#m, G, A x2)
Pale white hands entwined
Like we’re in a dream
and ghostly figures dine over candlelight
(pre-chorus: Bm, A, G x2)
But soon I have to go into the shadows
I need your arms to keep me safe
(chorus: Em, Bm, Bm - A - G x2 ~ last time back to Bm instead of G)
From the truth filled with whispers and with lies
One more taste would leave me dry to the bone
A transparent face begins to heal
I was living like a ghost but you made me real
Summer warmth is gone
I’m headed back to a place where I apparently belong
A force pulling me in, I can’t fight it
Your hands helping me escape
From the truth filled with whispers and with lies
One more taste would leave me dry to the bone
A transparent face begins to heal
I was living like a ghost but you made me real
(bridge: G, A, Bm, A ~ repeat until end)
If I go back there, what will I do?
Like a ghost I’ll drift away from you,
If I go back there, what will I do?
Like a ghost I’ll drift away…
And I will try to make it right again,
Because we’re entwined like oxygen and hydrogen,
Oh I will try to make it right again,
‘Cos we’re entwined like oxygen and hydrogen.
