Ghost Lyrics

Whenever I called you
I couldn't say
It was only yesterday
And yesterday's so far away
What's the ETA?

Don't tell me you need me
I am estranged
And I'm over-aged
The trouble it may be
There's still a part of me
That has to know
What you have to say

On and on we go
Always with the ghosts of us in tow
Stuck somewhere between a friend and foe
Round and round we go

Oh, round and round again
Looking for a life beyond the end
Lost somewhere between a foe and friend
Round and round again

I should have told you
Yes, I'm to blame
Oh, I took the blame
Turned it into this serenade
Oh, the mess I've made

And I should have warned you
What was in store
But I was so so sure
I wasn't haunted anymore
Not forevermore

On and on we go
Always with the ghosts of us in tow
Stuck somewhere between a friend and foe
Round and round we go

Oh, round and round again
Looking for a life beyond the end
Lost somewhere between a foe and friend
Round and round again

On and on we go
Always with the ghosts of us in tow
Stuck somewhere between a friend and foe
Round and round we go

What is the Meaning of Ghost?

Memories of past relationships can linger like persistent shadows, following us even as we try to move forward. In this introspective ballad, La Havas explores the complex dynamics of a relationship caught in limbo, where two people oscillate between being friends and adversaries. The singer acknowledges her own role in the relationship's breakdown while grappling with unresolved feelings and unanswered questions. The recurring imagery of going "round and round" emphasizes the cyclical nature of these emotional patterns, while the metaphor of ghosts represents the lingering presence of shared history and unresolved emotions. The song captures the universal experience of being unable to fully let go, even when we know we should, as we search for closure and meaning in the aftermath of a significant relationship. #RelationshipLimbo #UnresolvedFeelings #EmotionalCycles
