Chris Cornell - Ghosts lyrics

I know what your looking for

You've looked in these eyes before

and all you saw was blue-green water

Searching for a mirror

That would show the world not who you are

but who you want to be

And you thought you'd find that one in me

But it's been a long time

Since I heard that name

He doesn't live here anymore

Don't know where he's residing

You can wait here if you want

But I don't think he's coming back

He doesn't live here anymore

Should you find the right place

Same old place you knew before

But that won't change what hides behind the door

And what lies underneath

And the change from the inside out

He doesn't live here anymore

Don't know where he's residing

I think it's better if you go

'Cause I don't want him coming back

Yes I know the name sounds a little bit familiar

Like a melody to a dream

Yes I know he wore the same face

the same clothes

But that was so long ago

I know who you want to find

Somewhere is the memory

of somebody I left behind

Well let's take it all in stride

It's that time to say goodbye

He doesn't live here anymore
