[Verse 1]
Are my love songs lies now that the love is gone?
There's the one about forever
And loving you in a past life or whatever
The difference between us
Is when I sing it, I really mean it
But I guess I wasn't listening
'Cause you always had the same questions

[Chorus 1]
You've been chasing spirits
And staying up all night
You said if you don't rein it in
You're shaving ten years off your life

[Verse 2]
I tried to come to you, but you didn't like the way I asked
But there's nothing in L.A. for mе
Just a lonely singer at the bеach
I could start a garden with the landlord
Something good and simple
And worth staying in town for
I was pulling cards while you jumped the cattle guard
They say lovin's hard

[Chorus 2]
You've been chasing spirits
And I'm still chasing them lights
Now, who is a bigger mystic?
And who's winning a bar fight?
