LYRICS - Phantom by Joanna Glass



Phantom
Music & Lyrics by Joanna Glass
© 2014 BMI Gloucester Entertainment

[VERSE 1]:
Didn't know your love would haunt me
‘Till you reappear
And I would wait until the world can
Change so we can meet again.
But wouldn't know your love would cost me
Since you disappeared
I've given so much but there was nothing left
For me in the end.
[PRECHORUS 1]:
Slowly, you creep back inside
I see your name unexpected at sight
It taunts me and eats at my side
Just waiting for me to resign

[CHORUS 1]:
Your haunting of my mind
Will have me waiting for so long
Don't keep me hangin’ on
'Cuz I'll just cut off my own arms

[VERSE 2]:
I wouldn't know how much you loved me
Were your words sincere
Can I just find a way to erase the past
Of one's lost love
If you don't mean the words forever;
I want things loud and clear.
I need to see us through an end
Even if it’s your end

[PRECHORUS 2]:
Breaking my hopes at thought of these 
Places I thought we would walk
Relentlessly tempted, I know I'll regret it
If we were to start one more time

[CHORUS 2]:
Your haunting of my mind
Will have me waiting for so long
Don't keep me hangin’ on
‘Cuz I'll just cut off my own arms

[BRIDGE]:
Did you mean it when you say you’ll stay with me?
You told me where you want to go
But where are you, I'm here
Fast, fast, slow, I'm in control
I know that we won't be
Yes, that's me on the radio
Transmitting far from from you
Nevermind words you said softly
Demonize the times you burned me
Your haunting of my mind
Is a haunting of my heart

[REFRAIN]:
Your haunting of my mind
Would have me waiting for so long
Don’t keep me hangin’ on
‘Cuz I’ll just cut off my own arms

Your haunting of my mind
Would keep me hangin’ on
Don’t keep me hangin’ on
‘Cuz I’ll just cut off my own arms

[OUTRO]:
Even cut off my own
Even cut off my own
Even cut off my own
Even cut off my own arms
