I'm homesick
For somewhere that doesn't exist
For someone I'm still learning to miss
It's like you've been replaced
By home videotapes

Sun goes up, then the sun goes down
And your shadow gets longer on the ground
And it's all for what? 'Cause you're not around
But I still hope I'll make you proud

Oh, I'm running after something, trying to catch your ghost
Holding onto pictures and the smell of your clothes
Feel you slipping through my fingers, and I know I'll never reach you
But you're part of me, I can't let you go
So, I just keep on chasing shadows of you, of you
Chasing shadows of you

I'm homesick
For conversations I would avoid
Now I miss the sound of your voice
It's like you've been replaced
By a tattoo of your name

Sun goes up, then the sun goes down
And your shadow gets longer on the ground
And it's all for what? 'Cause you're not around
But I still feel you here somehow

Oh, I'm running after something, trying to catch your ghost
Holding onto pictures and the smell of your clothes
Feel you slipping through my fingers, and I know I'll never reach you
But you're part of me, I can't let you go
So, I just keep on chasing shadows of you, of you
Chasing shadows of you, you, you

Said goodbye, wasn't ready yet
Only see you in this silhouettes (of you)
Now there's nothing but a shadow left (a shadow)
Of you, you, you
So, I'll just keep on chasing shadows of you, of you, ooh-ooh-ooh
