Lyrics
Blindside (acoustic)
Summer ends an' autumn starts, all fadin' 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 from the blue
No one ever hit me harder than you
'Cause you caught me on my blindside
Right place at the wrong time
An' 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 we lose?
I'm haunted by the ghost of you
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You were good at talkin' back, so quick to use my past
All the questions you never asked
Oh, 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
It's just a memory I wake up to
'Cause you caught me on my blindside
Right place at the wrong time
An' 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 we lose?
I'm haunted by the ghost of you
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Every day, every night, I'm fallin'
An' every day, every night, I'm fallin'
An' every day, every night, I'm fallin'
'Cause you caught me on my blindside
Right place at the wrong time
An' 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 we lose?
I'm haunted by the ghost of you
I'm haunted, baby (ooh-ooh)
I'm haunted by the ghost of you (ooh)
Oh, yeah (ooh-ooh, ooh)
