BoyWithUke - Ghost Lyrics

I should've told you
When I had the chance
(Ecnahc eht dah I nehw uoy dlot ev'dluohs i)

I should've told you when I had the chance
Lost in the memories we don't have
I wanted to hold you in hopeless romance
Mmm, you fade like a ghost

I've been from London to Aberdeen (wow)
Inside a coupe and from inside a private limousine (cool?)
Do you think it really matters if I wear designer? (No)
'Cause I don't, if I don't have her, what's the point of finer things? (Things)
I'm ex nihilo, like Augustine (amen)
But I confess I haven't been the best internally (why not?)
I keep seeing two moons in my dreams (again?)
Can you tell me what they really mean?

I should've told you when I had the chance
Lost in the memories we don't have
I wanted to hold you in hopeless romance
Mmm, you fade like a ghost

Can you catch me when I fall? (Fall)
I'm in love with the idea (idea)
Of who you are (I'm in love with a lie)
I tried to look the other way
But I'm lying to myself
I never wanted it to end

I had no other option
I had to find a way to leave before you walked in
At the end the chase was all I really wanted
But it's too late for that
You give heart attacks
And I find it hard to sleep (it's hard to sleep)
'Cause I'm afraid of ghosts, and I can hear you talking (blah, blah, blah, blah)
So perpetual, you show no sign of stopping (stop)
It's too late for that, (ah) can't you understand? (Ah)

I should've told you (told you)
When I had the chance (I never had the chance)
Lost in the memories we don't have (never had it, never have)
I wanted to hold you (holding onto hope)
In hopeless romance (hopeless romance)
Mmm, you fade like a ghost (like a ghost, like a ghost)

(Ah, you fade like a ghost)
(Ah, you fade like a ghost)

You could at least just make it easy (easy)
You know I hate bein' so needy (needy)
Got my attention on a leash and I don't want it back
Unintentionally acting creepy (creepy)
In front of her, but she can't see me (yeah, can't see)
I think she thinks I'm on the spectrum, oh (ooh)
I'm pretty sure she wants to leave (wants to leave)
And I don't blame her
