Ghost Of You Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Seven days
Since you went and found some space
I tell myself, "I'm doin' great"
And I'm not holdin' on
So don't worry 'bout me
I can keep myself busy
At least it's how I make it seem
Until the day is done
[Pre-Chorus]
Mornin' turns to evenin'
Haven't even thought about you leavin'
Swear to God, I almost got this feelin' off my mind
[Chorus]
But every time the lights go out
I see you there when you're not around
Stuck in my head
And I know you're gone
But I still hold on to the ghost of you, oh-oh
Every time I'm in the dark
I feel you there like a shock to my heart
Back from the dеad
Oh, I know you're gone
But I still hold on to the ghost of you, ghost of you
Seven days
Since you went and found some space
I tell myself, "I'm doin' great"
And I'm not holdin' on
So don't worry 'bout me
I can keep myself busy
At least it's how I make it seem
Until the day is done
[Pre-Chorus]
Mornin' turns to evenin'
Haven't even thought about you leavin'
Swear to God, I almost got this feelin' off my mind
[Chorus]
But every time the lights go out
I see you there when you're not around
Stuck in my head
And I know you're gone
But I still hold on to the ghost of you, oh-oh
Every time I'm in the dark
I feel you there like a shock to my heart
Back from the dеad
Oh, I know you're gone
But I still hold on to the ghost of you, ghost of you
[Verse 2]
I can't facе somebody takin' you for
Drinks and dates 'cause you know I wonder
You know I wonder if it feels the same, the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Mornin' turns to evenin'
Haven't even thought about you leavin'
Swear to God, I almost got this feelin' off my mind
[Chorus]
But every time the lights go out
I see you there when you're not around
Stuck in my head
And I know you're gone
But I still hold on to the ghost of you, oh-oh
Every time I'm in the dark
I feel you there like a shock to my heart
Back from the dead
Oh, I know you're gone
But I still hold on to the ghost of you, ghost of you
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, I know you're gone
But I still hold on to the ghost of you, ghost of you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I can't facе somebody takin' you for
Drinks and dates 'cause you know I wonder
You know I wonder if it feels the same, the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Mornin' turns to evenin'
Haven't even thought about you leavin'
Swear to God, I almost got this feelin' off my mind
[Chorus]
But every time the lights go out
I see you there when you're not around
Stuck in my head
And I know you're gone
But I still hold on to the ghost of you, oh-oh
Every time I'm in the dark
I feel you there like a shock to my heart
Back from the dead
Oh, I know you're gone
But I still hold on to the ghost of you, ghost of you
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, I know you're gone
But I still hold on to the ghost of you, ghost of you
Yeah, yeah, yeah

What did Mimi Webb say about "Ghost Of You"?
Genius Answer
“Ghost of You” is all about trying to live your life, trying to get on with your day-to-day jobs, and you’re constantly seeing that one person in your mind. You know when you think about someone every second of every day, and it’s exhausting? I wrote this with Phil Plested [who’s written for Lewis Capaldi and Little Mix]. At the time, I was just getting back into a situation I shouldn’t have been getting into, but I completely convinced myself. Now I look back, and it’s quite funny that when this song came out [as a single in October 2022], that situation was already done. It was a full-circle moment.
