[Verse] Empty pew beside you, silent as the rain You still fold your hands like prayer, though the hymn’s been gone Your voice still hums the old melody While I’m just shadows in the pew, whispering your name [Pre-Chorus] Sunlight bleeds through stained glass, cold and thin You’re holding on to something I’ve let go of within [Chorus] Oh, I’m the ghost that walks behind your prayers A shadow in the aisle where love used to share You still believe, but I’m gone, I’m gone Just a memory, still strong, still long In every hymn, in every “amen” I’m the silence where you thought you’d see me again [Verse] You leave a space for me, a coat on the rack But I’m not coming back, I’m not coming back You say, “God will heal all this pain” But I’m the wound that the healing can’t reclaim [Pre-Chorus] Sunlight bleeds through stained glass, cold and thin You’re holding on to something I’ve let go of within [Chorus] Oh, I’m the ghost that walks behind your prayers A shadow in the aisle where love used to share You still believe, but I’m gone, I’m gone Just a memory, still strong, still long In every hymn, in every “amen” I’m the silence where you thought you’d see me again [Bridge] And if you turn and call my name, I won’t answer Even if the church lights rise up like a crown I’m not here, I’m not here And you’re not wrong, just holding on too tight To a love that’s fading in the light [Chorus] Oh, I’m the ghost that walks behind your prayers A shadow in the aisle where love used to share You still believe, but I’m gone, I’m gone Just a memory, still strong, still long In every hymn, in every “amen” I’m the silence where you thought you’d see me again [Outro] Empty pew… Still believing… Still believing…
