I guess it's luck, but it's the same
  Hard luck, you've been trying to tame
  Maybe it's love, but it's like you said
  “Love is like a role that we play.”
    But, I believe in you so much
  I could die for the words that you say
  But, I believe in you so much
  I could die from the words that you say
    But, you're chasin' the ghost of a good thing
  Haunting yourself as the real thing
  It's getting away from you again
  While you're chasin' ghosts

    Just bend the pieces ‘till they fit
  Like they were made for it
  But, they weren't meant for this
