You’ve come alive in my dreams
Now we are not talking
The silence was deafening
In sleep I find peace

I never dreamed you would run
The hurt that my words awakened
The shadow of myself I’d become
Can’t forgive what I’ve done

I think of you every turn
Oh how it burns, how it burns!
Like a ghost & I see you everywhere
But it’s the words that ring so loud that I can’t bear:
“I wish we never met!”

Now I do not like what I see
My life’s not aligned with my dreams
I’m not who I thought I would be
And it’s bothering me

Seems everywhere that I turn
Another door closes so firm
Is this the the fate I deserve?
And is it following me?

‘Cos I think of you every turn
Oh how it burns, how it burns!
Like a ghost & I see you everywhere
But it’s the words that ring so loud that I can’t bear:
“I wish we never met!”

- Instrumental verse -

It took the end of the world
To end us, the poetry’s absurd
I know your packed bags were so well rehearsed
For your saviour’s return

Godspeed my stranger my love
The Holy Spirit came like a dove
Now she leaves me my senses are numbed
And the devil has won
