(Buddy Kaye/Jeffrey Tweel)
|
A ghost is there
|
I can see the outline of her shadow traced in the air.
|
Sometimes I see her bended over your shoulder
|
I think what lies has she told you
|
And I see a smile light up your face
|
You like what she says
|
And I wanna cry, it's killing me but I play dumb instead.
|
|
She's the uninvited guest who lives in our house.
|
She's the other woman whose on your mind
|
Who's in your life
|
And has to be blind, not to see it, not to feel it.
|
And I'm running second best
|
To the uninvited guest
|
And it's breaking my heart.
|
|
You don't know how I know
|
If it all was in the open you'd deny that is its so.
|
Just like the old song 'Torn Between Two Loves'
|
It's that happening to us
|
It's happening to you and me
|
And the pain is intense
|
I should leave you but I love you
|
Oh, it doesn't make sense.
|
|
(Repeat Chorus)
|
|
I should leave you but I love you
|
Oh, it doesn't make sense.
|
She's the uninvited guest who lives in our house.
|
She's the other woman whose on your mind
|
Who's in your life
|
And has to be blind, not to see it, not to feel it.
|
And I'm running second best
|
To the uninvited guest
|
And it's breaking my heart.
|
And it's breaking my heart.
