Ghosts in my cassette tape (versione 2)

Verse 1

I've got a tape in my hands, magnetic gold

Rewind button keeps it warm, like it never lets go

Your voice skips on the second track, but I hold on tight

Summer rain and your laughter still sound right

Bicycle chain clicking against the curb down below

Sunlight dancing through the blinds as you walk out the door

I'm sitting here with my headphones, watching time rewind

Every song we danced to is playing out in time

Pre-Chorus

Do you remember the way the static screamed?

When we mixed up the rhythm of your heartbeat and mine

Chorus

Ghosts in my cassette tape, burning like a sunset on repeat

I'm rewinding back to love that I thought was too good to keep

Every hiss is holding onto what we used to feel

I won't turn off this magnetic reel

Ghosts in my cassette tape, skipping through the night

Rewind button keeps our hearts alive tonight

Hold this golden hiss close and let it hold you true

Cassette ghost, I'm rewinding back to you

Verse 2

Old record shop down on 6th Street still sells the same old shells

I've got your handwritten mixtape in a worn-out Polaroid shell

Every crackle holds a memory we're still alive inside

You used to sing along in the car while driving out of town

Your fingers tangled with mine while the tape ran through the rewind

You sang 'Hey, baby' loud so I could hear what you'd say

I'm tracing the static now like it's your handwriting on my skin

Every ghostly note still whispers that we never really lose the line

Pre-Chorus

Do you remember the way the static screamed?

When we mixed up the rhythm of your heartbeat and mine

Chorus

Ghosts in my cassette tape, burning like a sunset on repeat

I'm rewinding back to love that I thought was too good to keep

Every hiss is holding onto what we used to feel

I won't turn off this magnetic reel

Ghosts in my cassette tape, skipping through the night

Rewind button keeps our hearts alive tonight

Hold this golden hiss close and let it hold you true

Cassette ghost, I'm rewinding back to you

Bridge

If love is just a static then I want more of that

Keep it crackling soft on my radio skin

Every ghostly hum is a reminder not to lose the line

I'll tape these memories close and never let them rewind

Bitter sweet like saltwater in the air tonight

Rewind button holding onto what we're meant to keep

Chorus

Ghosts in my cassette tape, burning like a sunset on repeat

I'm rewinding back to love that I thought was too good to keep

Every hiss is holding onto what we used to feel

I won't turn off this magnetic reel

Ghosts in my cassette tape, skipping through the night

Rewind button keeps our hearts alive tonight

Hold this golden hiss close and let it hold you true

Cassette ghost, I'm rewinding back to you
