And when you left this town
You had to change your name
You had to change your face
To hide away the pain
And you'll run from part to part
Until you come right back to the start

You said we weren't safe
And vanished without a trace
It's hard to chase a bird
When you don't have any wings
And you'll fly straight into a dawn
You'll come back once safely past your part 

You say you're alone
but my arms are open wide
That you won't ever find
Now it's raining so hard
I can't see my own tears
You're giving me reason
To put trust in my fears
Now I'm chasing a ghost
Cause there ain't no real thing
There's only a carcass left
Where our love used to stay
I'm beginning to think
That it's better that way

And one day you'll return
You're swoopin' as a dove
And maybe then you'll ask
What happened to our love?
