Slow Dancing With Ghosts

Official song lyrics: ‘Slow Dancing With Ghosts’ by Abu Sayed. Original writing and composition.

I feel your shadow moving right across the floor
The scent of midnight creeping in beneath my door
You pull me closer than a memory usually goes
I’m falling deeper into slow dancing with ghosts
The embers dying in the fireplace we built
I trace the outlines of your body on the quilt
We left the porch light burning low against the dark
You always knew exactly how to light the spark
It’s a quiet kind of fever when you look my way
A heavy kind of silence with so much to say
I taste the summer rain upon your skin tonight
We’re swaying softly in the fading candle light
Hold me tightly in the spaces where the past still breathes
Wrap your arms around the secrets that the darkness leaves
I can feel your heartbeat racing like a rolling tide
I’m a willing prisoner with you here by my side
Swirling in the ashes of the love we made
Caught inside a beautiful and endless shade
I pour a bourbon just to help the vision stay
I watch you smiling in that subtle, knowing way
Your fingers tracing gentle circles on my chest
You know the places where my heavy head should rest
It’s a quiet kind of fever when you look my way
A heavy kind of silence with so much to say
I taste the summer rain upon your skin tonight
We’re swaying softly in the fading candle light
Hold me tightly in the spaces where the past still breathes
Wrap your arms around the secrets that the darkness leaves
I can feel your heartbeat racing like a rolling tide
I’m a willing prisoner with you here by my side
Swirling in the ashes of the love we made
Caught inside a beautiful and endless shade
Oh I need you closer than the air I breathe
Every single whisper is making me believe
Even when you vanish in the morning dew
You know Sayed is waiting in the dark for you
I keep the fire burning as the cold wind blows
Still forever lost in slow dancing with ghosts
I can still feel your breath against my neck
Just stay here with me until the sun comes up
Hold me tightly in the spaces where the past still breathes
Wrap your arms around the secrets that the darkness leaves
I can feel your heartbeat racing like a rolling tide
I’m a willing prisoner with you here by my side
