Rina Sawayama Phantom Lyrics

[Intro]
(Phantom, phantom)

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

[Pre-Chorus]
Stickers and scented gel pens
Give possessions, get friends
Breaking off pieces, things started to change
I've been tryin' to find her since
She gave a little too much away
[Chorus]
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]
Phan-tom, phantom

[Verse 2]
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, still got some growin' to do

[Pre-Chorus]
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 and hoping you're still
Waiting by the windowsill, I'd bring you back to us [Chorus]
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 you left me with
My phantom (Phantom)
[Bridge]
Ooh, 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 want to tell you that I'm sorry, I'm sorry

[Chorus]
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 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 you left me with
My phantom (Phantom)

[Post-Chorus]
Phan-tom, phantom
Phan-tom, phantom

[Outro]
Once upon a time, there was a girl
Ooh, dying to be liked, looking for love
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, I don't wanna do this without you
