Lyrics
[Intro – bright synth arpeggio, subtle new jack guitar riff]
Hallway light spills through the door
Silent shadow I’ve become
[Verse 1 – grooving bassline, crisp snare]
I lean against the wall each night
Watch you pass without a glance
Your laugh floats down the painted tiles
I’m just the air you don’t advance
[Pre-Chorus – building string swells, rising synth]
Every time you turn your head
I vanish before you see
A ghost in your quiet hall
Trapped in this memory
[Chorus – full band, catchy falsetto hook]
Where is she? There she is
Does she think this is it?
I’m a ghost in her house
Watching every little bit
Where is she? There she is
Does she know I exist?
I’m a ghost in her hall
Waiting for a sign I’ve missed
[Verse 2 – syncopated guitar, soft shakers]
I see you hum to morning light
Fix your shoes by the mat
I trace the cracks in the old floorboards
Wishing I could take your hand
[Pre-Chorus – layered vocals, tighter drum groove]
Every time you call a name
I hold my breath and fade
A ghost in your quiet space
Stuck in the same old phase
[Chorus – more energetic, layered harmonies]
Where is she? There she is
Does she think this is it?
I’m a ghost in her house
Watching every little bit
Where is she? There she is
Does she know I exist?
I’m a ghost in her hall
Waiting for a sign I’ve missed
[Bridge – stripped-back piano, soft vocal]
I used to knock on your door
Now I just watch through the crack
I’m stuck between then and now
Waiting for my way back
[Solo – funky guitar riff, horn accompaniment]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Chorus – full orchestration, maximum energy]
Where is she? There she is
Does she think this is it?
I’m a ghost in her house
Watching every little bit
Where is she? There she is
Does she know I exist?
I’m a ghost in her hall
Waiting for a sign I’ve missed
[Outro – fading synth, soft guitar strum]
Hallway light dims to black
Silent shadow I remain
