Ghosts in my stereo 2 (version 2)

Verse

You always said we'd never be apart

I was too young to understand why it had to start

So I'm sitting here with your old transistor radio on my lap

The static is loud but the hum keeps me right back

To the summers where you'd tune in and sing along at the top of your lungs

Your voice would soar up past the antenna into the wide open spaces we used to run

Now it's just static, fading fast

But I'm still holding on

Pre-Chorus

Is this all there is? Is it really done?

Or do some things stay right here inside us till they're sung?

Tell me what you hear in the static and silence

Maybe that's where our story isn't finished yet at least

Chorus

Ghosts in my stereo, humming through the dark

I'm still hearing your voice like a spark

The stations keep changing but this one frequency stays the same

And I'm holding on to it till you come back and claim

That old transistor radio was always just a line

To a place where we were the only sound that shined

Ghosts in my stereo, singing loud and clear

Tell me when your signal comes back, I'll be waiting here

Verse

I remember how the antenna used to crackle and pop

Every time you'd shout out your favorite song and never drop the beat

The whole neighborhood would gather 'round while you tuned through the night

And for a little while nothing else mattered but your shining light

Now I'm driving through the dark with this old thing in my hand

And I swear that every flicker, every static burst is your voice calling back across time and space to stand

Where we were young and our love was loud enough

To reach us here, no matter how many miles away

Pre-Chorus

Is this all there is? Is it really done?

Or do some things stay right here inside us till they're sung?

Tell me what you hear in the static and silence

Maybe that's where our story isn't finished yet at least

Chorus

Ghosts in my stereo, humming through the dark

I'm still hearing your voice like a spark

The stations keep changing but this one frequency stays the same

And I'm holding on to it till you come back and claim

That old transistor radio was always just a line

To a place where we were the only sound that shined

Ghosts in my stereo, singing loud and clear

Tell me when your signal comes back, I'll be waiting here

Bridge

So don't give up on us yet

Don't move too far away

I'm still tuning in to what I used to hear

Maybe someday we'll find our way back here

To that place where the static turns into a song

And you and me can sing along for just one more night, long after everyone is gone

Chorus

Ghosts in my stereo, humming through the dark

I'm still hearing your voice like a spark

The stations keep changing but this one frequency stays the same

And I'm holding on to it till you come back and claim

That old transistor radio was always just a line

To a place where we were the only sound that shined

Ghosts in my stereo, singing loud and clear

Tell me when your signal comes back, I'll be waiting here
