[Intro]
Ecnahc eht dah I nehw uoy dlot ev'dluohs I

[Chorus]
I should've told you when I had the chance
Lost in the memories we don't have
I wanted to hold you in hopeless romance
Mmm, you fade like a ghost

[Verse 1]
I've been from London to Aberdeen (Wow)
Inside a coupe, frontside, a private limousine (Cool)
Do you think it really matters if I wear designer? (No)
'Cause I don't
I don't have it, what's the point of finance (Things)?
I'm masking her love, like Augustine (Amen)
But I confess I haven't been the bеst internally
(Why not?)
I keep seeing two moons in my dreams (Again?)
Could you tell mе what they really mean?

[Chorus]
I should've told you when I had the chance
Lost in the memories we don't have
I wanted to hold you in hopeless romance
Mmm, you fade like a ghost
[Bridge]
Can you catch me when I fall? (Fall)
I'm in love with the idea (Idea)
Of who you are
(I'm in love with a lie)
I try to look the other way (Way)
But I'm lying to myself (Self)
I never wanted it to end

[Verse 2]
I had no other option
I had to find a way to leave before you walked in
At the end the chase was all I really wanted
But it's too late for that
You give heart attacks
And I find it hard to sleep (It's hard to sleep)
'Cause I'm afraid of ghosts, and I can hear you talking (Blah blah blah blah)
So perpetual, you showed us how to stop it (Stop)
It's too late for that (Fuck!)
Can't you understand? (Ah)

[Chorus]
I should've told you (Told you)
When I had the chance (I never had the chance)
Lost in the memories we don't have (Never had it, never have)
I wanted to hold you (Holding onto hope)
In hopeless romance (Hopeless romance)
Mmm, you fade like a ghost (Like a ghost, like a ghost)
[Instrumental]

[Outro]
You could at least just make it easy (Easy)
You know I hate being so needy (Needy)
Got my intention on a leash and I don't want it back
Intentionally acting creepy (Creepy)
In front of her but she can't see me
I think she thinks I'm on the spectrum (Ooh)
I'm pretty sure she wants to leave (Wants to leave)
I don't blame her
