Phantom Lyrics – Rina Sawayama

[Intro: Rina Sawayama]
Phantom, phantom

[Verse 1: Rina Sawayama]
Once upon a time
There was a girl pleasing the world
Dying to be liked
Looking for love, wanting to trust

[Pre-Chorus: Rina Sawayama]
Stickers and scented gel pens
Give possessions, get friends
Breaking off pieces
Things started to change
I've been trying to find her since
She gave a little too much away

[Chorus: Rina Sawayama]
I don't wanna do this without you
I don't wanna do this
If you're just a ghost in the night
I tried everything to fill up
The void that you left me with
My phantom (Phantom)

[Post-Chorus: Rina Sawayama]
Phan-tom, phantom

[Verse 2: Rina Sawayama]
If I could talk to you
I'd tell you not to rush
You're good enough
You don't have to lose
What makes you you
Still got some growing to do

[Pre-Chorus: Rina Sawayama]
When did we get so estranged?
Haunted by the way I've changed
Claiming back the pieces of me
That I've lost
Reaching in, hoping you're still
Waiting by the windowsill
I'd bring you back to us

[Chorus: Rina Sawayama]
I don't wanna do this without you
I don't wanna do this
If you're just a ghost in the night
I tried everything to fill up
The void that you left me with
My phantom (Phantom)

[Bridge: Rina Sawayama]
Oh, I was wrong to assume
I would ever outgrow you
I need you now, I need you close
How do you hold a ghost?
Inner child, come back to me
I wanna tell you that I'm sorry, I'm sorry

[Chorus: Rina Sawayama]
I don't wanna do this without you
I don't wanna do this
If you're just a ghost in the night
I tried everything to fill up
The void that you left me with
My phantom
Don't wanna do this without you
Don't wanna do this
If you're locked away in my mind
I tried everything to fill up
The void that you left me with
My phantom (Phantom)

[Post-Chorus: Rina Sawayama]
Phan-tom, phantom
Phan-tom, phantom

[Outro: Rina Sawayama]
Once upon a time, there was a girl
Oh, dying to be liked, looking for love
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, I don't wanna do this without you
