The Past is a Ghost

 

(Verse 1) 

Pushed and prodded, gave it all I had (Gave it all I had) 

Fought the battle, wasn't feeling bad (Wasn't feeling bad) 

Left no stone unturned, no corner missed (No corner missed) 

Did my best, now my conscience is kissed (Kissed by peace)

(Chorus)

 But the past is a ghost, it can't be chased (It can't be chased) 

The future's a cloud, a veil yet unfaced (Veil yet unfaced)

 No use in dwelling on "what ifs" and "whys" (Whys and whys)

 Just gotta let go, with a grateful goodbye (Goodbye)

(Verse 2) 

Easy to get stuck in the yesterday haze (Yesterday haze) 

Replaying the scenes in a million ways (A million ways) 

But that's just a trap, a mental quicksand (Mental quicksand) 

Sinking us deeper, losing all our land (Losing all our land)

(Chorus) 

The past is a ghost, it can't be chased (It can't be chased)

 The future's a cloud, a veil yet unfaced (Veil yet unfaced)

 No use in dwelling on "what ifs" and "whys" (Whys and whys)

 Just gotta let go, with a grateful goodbye (Goodbye)

(Bridge) 

The world keeps on turning, a brand new day dawns (Brand new day dawns)

 Opportunities waiting, a chance to be reborn (To be reborn) 

Fresh challenges beckon, a chance to ignite (Chance to ignite)

 Let's leave the past behind, and step into the light.

**Outro:**

Now we stand at the edge, of a brand new start (Brand new start)

With lessons learned, and an open heart (Open heart)

Embracing the present, with hope in our eyes (Hope in our eyes)

Letting go of the past, and reaching for the skies (Reaching for the skies)

The journey continues, with every step we take (Step we take)

Building our future, with the choices we make (Choices we make)

So let's face tomorrow, with courage and grace (Courage and grace)

Moving forward together, in this beautiful space (Beautiful space)
