Lyrics

Yelling at the sky

Screaming at the world

Baby why’d you go away

I’m still your girl

Holding on too tight

Head up in the clouds

Heaven only knows where you are now

How do I love how do I love again

How do I trust how do I trust again

I stay up all night

Tell myself I’m alright

Baby you’re just harder to see than most

I put the record on

Wait ’til I hear our song

Every night I’m dancing with your ghost

Never got the chance

To say your last goodbye

I gotta move on

But it hurts to try

What It Means

Looked at closely, “Dancing With Your Ghost” is about the feeling captured in its very first words: “Yelling at the sky”. The narrator keeps returning to the same images — “I stay up all night” — until the final line “But it hurts to try” brings it home. It is honest without being heavy, and the repetition makes the meaning easy to follow even on the first listen.

• Driving, especially at night
