My Heart Still Dances With Your Ghost

It was in your eyes that I saw my beauty,

It was in your arms that I felt at home.

When I try to close my eyes at night,

My heart still dances with your ghost.


Sometimes the memories roll down my face

And the pain threatens to overwhelm me.

There’s not a memory I’ve managed to erase,

My heart still dances with your ghost.


I remember our first kiss in the rain,

And standing in the storm on the coast,

Lightning striking and thunder crashing.

My heart still dances with your ghost.


Memories pierce my heart and soul through,

Leaving scars that will take time to heal
.
I know letting you go is what I must do,

But my heart still dances with your ghost.
