You lurk in the corners of my mind, Like the shadow that follows me, Or a dream I can't shake off. I hear you in the lyrics of songs you've never heard, I see you in places you've never been. You seep into memories you don't belong in, that we didn't share. I have banished you from my life, But my heart just won't let you leave.

Forgotten love.
You lurk in the corners of my mind, Like the shadow that follows me, Or a dream I can't shake off. I hear you in the lyrics of songs you've never heard, I see you in places you've never been. You seep into memories you don't belong in, that we didn't share. I have banished you from my life, But my heart just won't let you leave.
