Lyrics

The way you smiled at me
Was easy to believe
That you were the special kind

Now we're lying here
I think you should to leave
cleary I’m not on your mind

If you’re looking for someone better
Go on and get her because

I’d rather sleep with ghosts
Than lie in the cold shadows
Of who you’re really
dreaming of

My bandaged heart it knows
Better to let you go
Then watch you throw away my love

It didn't take long to see
You are not what I need
And that’s someone, someone who cares

I was starving for affection
So I ran in your direction
When the truth is you were never really there

You were looking for someone better
go on and get her

I’d rather sleep with ghosts
Than lie in cold shadows
of who you’re really
dreaming of

My bandaged heart it knows
I’m gonna let you go
Someone else deserves my love

There is no use in trying or asking why?
Your actions speak louder than every single lie

I’d rather sleep with ghosts
Than lie cold shadows
Of who you’re really
dreaming of

My bandaged heart it knows
better to let you go
Someone else deserves my love

I’d rather sleep with ghosts
Than lie in cold shadows
Of who you’re really
dreaming of

My bandaged heart it knows
better to let you go
You don’t deserve my love

You threw away my love so easy
