We drank this love till it ran dry
No one can say we didn't try
When there was finally nothing left
We made the same mistake again

'Cause I was a boy playing a grown up
And you were a girl, hopelessly in love
And I was afraid of letting you see me
So I ran away 'cause runnin' is easy
But you still

Hurt me every night
Haunt me every time
I think I am fine
Then you're right there, it's a nightmare
You haunt me in my dreams
Haunt me, darling please
I need you to leave
But you won't stop
And your ghost haunts me

I left like only I know how
Need leaving, I'm the best around
Last week, I met you at your parents' house
I'm pretty sure they hate me now

'Cause I was a fool to let myself through this
And you played along, and led you to ruin
And we were in love, least that's what we called it
Whatever it was, I guess that we lost it
And now you

Hurt me every night
Haunt me every time
I think I am fine
Then you're right there, it's a nightmare
You haunt me in my dreams
Haunt me, darling, please
I need you to leave
But you won't stop
And your ghost haunts me (me, me)

'Cause I was just a boy playin' a grown up
And maybe one day I'd finally grow up
And I can look back and see that it's my fault
That all of the pain is something that I caused
And now you

Haunt me every night
Haunt me every time
I think I am fine
Then you're right there, it's a nightmare
You haunt me in my dreams
Haunt me, darling, please
I need you to leave
But you won't stop
And your ghost haunts me
