October Ghost

You fade in and out like you're not sure where you are
And I kiss the back of your neck
Where you don't have to kiss me back
And this time, I'm closing both my eyes
When it's hard to look at me
When you begin to cry
And we can lay like ghosts
If that will help you stay
I'll never say a word again
Put the questions away

How can you say you're not in love anymore
When tomorrow, we'll be back to the way we were before
How can you pretend you don't care anymore
Like you've lost all the reasons

Tonight, we can dress like crooks
Just to change the way we look, oh, love
And if you want to smile
Like the sadness isn't foul
Like your head's not a mess
Like I was someone else

How can you say you're not in love anymore
When tomorrow, we'll be back to the way we were before
How can you pretend you don't care anymore
Like you've lost all the reasons

It's out of habit, but I'm yours and yours to break
'Cause I've given up on hoping we could stay the same
This is all that we are, this is all that we are

How can you say you're not in love anymore?
How can you tell me you don't care anymore?
I did not see you change, 'cause nothing changed at all
How can you say you don't know anymore?
How can you love me and walk straight out the door?
And I know ?, 'cause I ?
