Song Lyrics

This fading light must be playing a trick on me.

How did you walk across the room & change the world I see.

I lost my breath, lost my sight,

And the room began to sway.

I look at you, oh. You leave me nothing to say.

[CHORUS: ]

Ain't no rhyme, ain't no reason.

It's just a mystery.

Ain't no rhyme, ain't no reason.

For what you do to me.

This kind of thing was not supposed to happen to me,

All the walls I built up came apart so easily.

Some kind of spell that I can't shake.

Got a hold on me,

Now I don't know if I ever want to be free.

CHORUS

Oh I'm falling into the mist,

And I'm face to face with a life of emptiness.

Oh I want to run. But I can't move,

Don't want to give in, But there's nothing I can do.

I lay awake & try to sort out what is true,

I close my eyes. But all I see is you.

I'm like a ghost. I'm like a shadow,

And I can't go home,

You shake the ground. Hey. That I'm standing on.

[CHORUS]
