lyrics

On a lockdown, you and I
The world around feels scared and quiet
We sat under that heavy sky
Waiting to see another face for hours
But we lost sight of familiar faces
Friends only seen inside the phone
Then we all vanished with no traces
All turned to ghost without a bone

Maybe only lovers will stay alive
Everything else will turn to dust
All we ever had is this ghost town love
Everything else will pass
Maybe only lovers will stay afloat
Watching the event from high above
Breathing in each other with an open throat
Saved by their ghost town love

A thousand hours of solitude
Brought back softness to my face
And I was back there, back in my youth
I knew how to love you those early days
And how I miss having you around
We're so caught up swimming in deep water
And how I miss loving you this way
I just woke up to how much I've forgotten

Maybe only lovers will stay alive
Everything else will turn to dust
All we ever had is this ghost town love
Everything else will pass
Maybe only lovers will stay afloat
Watching the event from high above
Breathing in each other with an open throat
Saved by their ghost town love
