Oh, mm
Whoa, whoa

I've been chasing shadows down empty streets
Where every echo whispers your heartbeat
The night remembers what I try to forget
Your ghost still dances in my cigarette

And I've been burning just to feel again
Loving you like confessing a sin

'Cause you're still beneath my skin
Like a scar that never gives in
Every breath pulls you closer again
I can't wash you out, I can't pretend
You're still beneath my skin

The blues are bleeding from my old guitar
Your name still hums from every bar
I pour another glass of time and gin
And pray the morning forgives my sin

I tried to drown you in the sound
But the silence just pulls me down

'Cause you're still beneath my skin
Like a fire that won't grow dim
Every night, I fall back in
I can't unlove where you've been
You're still beneath my skin, oh

Maybe love ain't meant to fade
Maybe pain's the price we pay
But if my soul can't let you go
Then I'll bleed the blues till the morning glow

You're still beneath my skin
The place where your touch begins
Even when the light comes in
You're still beneath my skin
