Lyrics Marty McKay – Ghosted | New Today Lyrics

pre-chorus
If i won’t try
I can’t pretend, i’m just lost in time
If this means goodbye
Then please explain
I can’t be the only one trying

chorus
We get one life
Please give us a chance
I need one shot
To be more than friends
It’s only one life
Please just understand
That i need one shot
To give hope again
I might lose control

verse 2
We mеt the other night, we hеld each other tight
Late walk in the park, talking, our hearts to one another like
Then another tight embrace before we left this place
Exit stage left, take steps to never forget your face
Everything perfect, then out of the blue this goodbye text
This didn’t seem to make sense, why all of a sudden this goodbye next?
Could thy ex be, giving you ultimatums?
For y’all to date and no way this all was fake, and i imagined us embracing
Don’t tell me all this time y’all was dating
Since we’ve met, on my one-track mind, this is all that’s racing
Probably had a guilty conscious or your fiancé sensed that something was wrong
So you wrote me off, erased and buried like i was nothing but loss
Blocked me outta your life, on every level, outta pure fear
Scared of the change, maybe what is to come, and maybe what you’ll hear
But baby, you’re here, and i’m here, there is no fear
But life without you is a nightmare, just mention my name i’ll be right there
But i need you with me, no 70/30 but 50/50
And if you’re with me, i’ll never leave you or “split”, ya get me?
What did i say wrong? even if it’s a list that’s “yay” long
This something i’m willing to pray on, ‘cause i can’t live without you a day on

chorus
One life
To give us a chance
Missed my one shot
To be more than friends
Let’s change it
One life please just understand
I’d go all in
Just to have your hand
I might lose control

verse 3
I’ve tried it all from calling, to emails to letters
Whatever i gotta do to let this female know that i sweat her
Anything, whatever i gotta do to get her
Put her in my songs, whatever i gotta do to forever embed her
That’s forever a letter, way deeper than ink
When you’re sleeping i’m thinking of ways to keep us in synch
Send you flowers to work, not like that old’ cowering jerk
Some wear their hearts on their sleeves, we wear ours on our shirts!
We’re past the point of no return and that’s the point i so regret
Blasting off like nasa verse the soviets, with no respect
You’ll always be trapped in the back of my mind
“the one who got away”, but really, i’m lying!
You never went nowhere, been here all the time
Haunting my dreams every day, every night
I’m under your spell, addicted to your thoughts and words
But sometimes what people think, is a gift, sometimes a often curse
And what they pray for, they get it, making their situations often worse
But we can’t deny what we felt, that awesome surge
The multiple times, we met in each other’s lives, who could deny that!?
The multiple times, that’s more than fate averages, multiply that
Being around you filled me with pride
But knowing that you we’re so close kills me inside
Guess i’ll have to rebuild from inside
Will we collide and let destiny do its duty?
From you, it’s truly, with best intentions, i get to mention you truly knew me
A tragic plot, if this was a nightmare, would have had it stopped
Even when i closed the door on your, i never had it locked

verse 4
You haunt me every single day
But all i do is see your face
Living in world where everywhere are memories
That remind me of the lovers we could never be
Tell myself that it’s just a phase
I’ll likely kiss your lips again
They say true love wins
Can’t be losing

chorus
One life
To give us a chance
Missed my one shot
To be more than friends
Let’s change it
One life, please just understand
I’d go all in
Just to have your hand
I might lose
One life
To give us a chance
Missed my one shot
To be more than friends
Let’s change it
One life, please just understand
I’d go all in
Just to have your hand

outro
The chapter’s over
But the book’s not closed
Much more to tell you
So much more to show
