I saw his pistol and fist
In an art show
Curly hair down to his shoulder
A year or so later
He chopped off his hair
And came back looking like a year younger
Fast forward
Oh another year or so in the books
Theremin wailing instead of us two
There was a year left ahead for us two
I learned what a single page letter could do
Even when I call on Halloweekend
Black out drunk trying to speak in
Secret code I left in his breast pocket
I couldn't quite capture my pain in his absence
And he texted me the next morning
Saying I was slurring something that sounded like love
And I meant every word I mispronounced
And I meant every spiral I needed you for
And I meant every second I spent on the floor
Waiting for you to come back on your board
And every night we spent losing time
Weekend bus rides and sleeping in
Missing class, coffee in our hands
I meant it all, love
I meant it all, love
I'll be your ghost
I'll be your ghost
I meant it all, love
I'll be your ghost
I'll be your ghost
I'll be your ghost
I'll be your ghost
And every night we spent losing time
Weekend bus rides and sleeping in
Missing class, coffee in our hands
Coffee in our hands
I'll be your ghost
I'll be your ghost
I'll be your ghost
I'll be your ghost
