Chorus Every day is a long time waiting Every night is alone and cryin' Your memory is a long time fadin' Every tear has a reason why, every tear has a reason why Echos are fillin' the hallways, bringin' back those better times The smell and the touch and the taste of you won't leave my mind You're a ghost in the house we lived in, I can feel you everywhere I know better than to hope that you still care But I keep lookin' for you out there Chorus You came in like the dawn of a new day, now the dark is settlin' in I don't know if I can find a life worth livin' again In the night, in the still of the shadows, I can't help but wonder why I bought into a trouble that no one else would buy And every tear has a reason why I chased you until you caught me, caught me so unaware Look at all the things you taught me about a dead end love affair Chorus
