I never knew love
So I never knew pain
Or so I thought
I guess I just hadn't given love a name
Then I met someone who
Without hesitation
He said" I love you"
But I doubted his intentions
'Cause I know all too well
The road to heaven runs through hell
Whatever you hold close
You'd one day have to let go
So I made my first love
A ghost
You know it's cold when warmth
Feels like a stranger
It's only when you're hurt
That love signals danger
Then I met someone who
Without hesitation
She said"I love you"
And it's not a question
But I know all too well
The road to heaven runs through hell
Whatever you hold close
You'd one day have to let go
So I made my first love
A ghost
I held her close
And then I let her go
I let her steal my time away
I made him a part of my everyday
I said I'd be forever here to stay
But forever is time
And time's a tide
I can't swim against
Now I'm looking at a man
Who hates his reflection
In an empty room
Echoes lost moments
We're all ghost
Lost in our own stories
We're all ghosts
And we're haunting
Our own memories
So when you meet someone who
Without hesitation
Says"I love you"
Don't
