Haunted

Rihanna · Good Girl Gone Bad [2007]

[verse one]

Footsteps on the stairs

Nobody there

I feel like there's someone watching me

Shadows on the wall

Whispers down the hall

But when I look there's nothing to see

You say that you let her go

You turned the page and closed the door

I can't get inside your head'

'Cause when I try she's there instead



[chorus]

I can't compete with a memory

How can I fight with someone that I can't see

There's two of us but it feels like three

I wish her ghost would just let us be

Boy you're everything I ever wanted

But I gotta let you go 'cause this love is haunted

Haunted...



[verse two]

You say that she's gone

That you've moved on

So why do I feel her eyes on me

Can invisible chains keep us in pain

Won't you please tell her set you free

Sometimes when you look past me your eyes see someone I can't see

So I'm giving up this war

'Cause I can't fight it anymore



[chorus]

I can't compete with a memory

How can I fight with someone that I can't see

There's two of us but it feels like three

I wish her ghost would just let us be

Boy you're everything I ever wanted

But I gotta let you go 'cause this love is haunted

Haunted...



[bridge]

Wish I could cast a spell to make her spirit leave

Walls are closing and it's so damn hard to breathe

And there ain't nothing I can do about it



[chorus]

I can't compete with a memory

How can I fight with someone that I can't see

There's two of us but it feels like three

I wish her ghost would just let us be

Boy you're everything I ever wanted

But I gotta let you go 'cause this love is haunted

Haunted...

Haunted (haunted)

Haunted



Haunted

Haunted

I don't wanna fight anymore so I'm walkin out that door

Haunted
