Can't stand the sight of myself Lying in bed all day with curtains drawn Staring at the clock on the window ledge The angry words you said come back so strong Sometimes love quits When the pieces don't fit And suddenly all your world falls to the floor Then all your wild days fall away You can't see much point in them anymore In this house of dreams I let you walk like a ghost unseen Girl on the day you left Out walked my everything I must have thought you'd always be there I never even noticed when the changes came one day Seems one minute you were standing close I turned around again
And girl you were far away And every plan we made I just let them fade And pile up on the floor beside the bed Now you're gone away But your memory stays I sit here thinking of the things I never said In this house of dreams I let you walk like a ghost unseen Girl on the day you left Out walked my everything Sometimes love quits When the pieces don't fit And suddenly all your world falls to the floor Then all your wild days fall away You can't see much point in them anymore In this house of dreams I let you walk like a ghost unseen Girl on the day you left Out walked my everything
