Lyrics

Verse

Faded lines on a yellowed page
A different soul at a different age
Tracing loops of a cursive hand
Like writing ink in shifting sand
The slant is steep, the rhythm's new
A version of me I never knew

Chorus

Oh, the ghost in the ink
Makes me stop and think
Reading words from a life long gone
A quiet melody at the break of dawn
Yeah, the ghost in the ink

Verse

Found a note in a dusty book
With a heavy heart and a steady look
The letters dance in a soulful sway
Of things I didn't know how to say
Soft and low, the shadows creep
Waking up secrets I used to keep

Chorus

Oh, the ghost in the ink
Makes me stop and think
Reading words from a life long gone
A quiet melody at the break of dawn
Yeah, the ghost in the ink
