Bm G D
I don't like walking around this old and empty house
Bm G D
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear

It's killing me to see you this way

Bm G D
There's an old voice in my head that's holding me back
Bm G D
Tell her that I miss our little talks
Bm G D
Soon it will be over and buried with our past

We used to play outside when we were young - and full of life and full of love -
Bm G D
Some days I don't know if I am wrong or right
Bm G D
Your mind is playing tricks on you my dear

You're gone, gone, gone away. I watched you disappear

All that's left is a ghost of you

Just let me go, we'll meet again soon.

Now wait, wait, wait for me. Please hang around

I see you when I fall asleep. Hey!
