I still chase your ghost

I still walk these streets and feel your hand inside my own

Why do we have to run away to feel at home?

We spend lifetimes waiting, so what's another day

When hope is the only way we tolerate the pain?

And I woke up in the middle of a dream

Chasing someone or something

A hidden face I've never seen

Where were you when I woke up (Hey!)

To a world without your voice

To sing me back to sleep? Don't let go

Are you letting go? (Ooh-whoa-oh-ooh-whoa)

I steady myself at the altar

And spell your name inside my mind

We're all someone else when the sun sets

Every time we close our eyes

But there's a world less complicated

Somehow we buried it alive

It froze like a river in the dead of winter

Deep underneath the ice

And I woke up in the middle of a dream

Chasing someone or something

A hidden face I've never seen

Where were you when I woke up (Hey!)

To a world without your voice

To sing me back to sleep? Don't let go

Are you letting go? (Ooh-whoa-oh-ooh-whoa)

Of two worlds that I am caught between

(I am caught between)

Which one is real, which one is just pretend

'Cause you're a door I cannot close

A static voice that comes and goes

A fatal crash, and I can't look away, yeah

And I woke up in the middle of a dream

Chasing someone or something

A hidden face I've never seen

Where were you when I woke up (Hey!)

To a world without your voice

To sing me back to sleep? Don't let go

Are you letting go? (Ooh-whoa-oh-ooh-whoa)

Still, I am wandering (Wake up!)

In search of anything (Wake up!)

That brings you back to me (Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

That brings you back to me, ooh-whoa ooh-whoa
