Phantom in Your Mind

Death has always fascinated me,

But nothing could have prepared us for that day

Are you better off without me now that time is standing still?

I'm sorry my love that I had to go away

But I followed you to work the other day

It amazes me how cruel this world can be

You spend your day helping the ungrateful and the sick

But nothing you could do could revive me

And I'll follow you around, you don't even know

'Cause I'm just a phantom in your mind

And sometimes you cry and I think that I should go

But I'll follow you until it's your time

I noticed that our oldest has been getting picked on

I'm frustrated, is there nothing I can do?

I wish I had the power to bring you all to me

Or figure out a way to get back to you

Who was that gentleman at the front door?

He's been coming 'round for a month or so

Does he help you forget the sadness in your heart?

Well it's breaking mine and I wish that he would go

We've heard it said a million times or more

You don't know what you've got 'til it ain't there

On the outside looking in, let me go back there again

But I'll follow you until you meet me here
