Blindside Lyrics
Ooh ooh, Summer ends and autumn starts, All fading into one, But i know time left its scars|
Never change oh my god, You were so caught up in your ways, You came for my cautious heart|
Like a bolt ooh ooh, From the blue ooh ooh, No one ever hit me harder than you|
‘Cause you caught me on my blindside, Right place at the wrong time, And i don’t wanna love the ghost of you ooh ooh, ‘Cause you caught me on my blindside, You were once in a lifetime, Why do we love the ones that we lose, I’m haunted by the ghost of you|
You were good at talking back, So quick to use my past, All the questions you never ask, Maybe we drove it a little too fast, We broke apart at the seams, I just wish that we could go back|
Just like a bolt from the blue, No one’s ever hit me harder than you, Now it’s all residue, You’re just a memory i wake up to|
‘Cause you caught me on my blindside, Right place at the wrong time, And i don’t wanna love the ghost of you ooh ooh, ‘Cause you caught me on my blindside, You were once in a lifetime, Why do we love the ones that we lose?, I’m haunted by the ghost of you, I’m haunted by the ghost of you|
Every day every night i’m falling, Every day every night i’m falling, Every day every night i’m falling|
‘Cause you caught me on my blindside, Right place at the wrong time, And i don’t wanna love the ghost of you, ‘Cause you caught me on my blindside, You were once in a lifetime, Why do we love the ones that we lose, I’m haunted by the ghost of you ooh ooh, I’m haunted by the ghost of you ooh ooh|
