(Intro)
I took a Jet - I had to leave so I left
bought a car that was fast
trying to get past her love
I can run I can hide
I can drive I can fly
But so far it ain't far enough
There's a message on my cell phone I can't erase
It's her and the sound of her voice that takes me back
Across 7 states
(Chorus)
I guess the heart of the matter
Is I just can't forget her
She's like a ghost
That haunts me everywhere I go
See her face on a billboard sign
See her name in the stars at night
She's that shadow in my dreams always chasing me
I can't outrun her memory
(Verse)
I took it east took it west
To the beach where I sat in the sand
Ran as far as the waves
Another town another crowd
It's quiet when its loud
But still your voice calls my name
Even if I was moving at the speed of light, I couldn't get away
Somehow I gotta face the fact that when I look back
it's hard to look away
(Chorus)
I guess the heart of the matter
Is I just can't forget her
She's like a ghost
That haunts me everywhere I go
See her face on a billboard sign
See her name in the stars at night
She's that shadow in my dreams always chasing me
I can't outrun her memory
Her memory’s beating in my heart like a drum I can't turn off
She's where I start she's where I end, she's back again
And she won't stop
I can't outrun her memory
(Chorus)
I guess the heart of the matter
Is I just can't forget her
She's like a ghost
That haunts me everywhere I go
See her face on a billboard sign
See her name in the stars at night
She's that shadow in my dreams always chasing me
I can't outrun her memory
