In a smoky room, where shadows dance,

Memories linger, given half a chance.

I sip my drink, recall your glance,

Back when we had our sweet romance.

Piano keys whisper soft, sad tunes,

Saxophone sighs under a moon.

Lost in the smell of your old perfume,

I find myself dreaming, lost in gloom.

Oh, how we laughed, the nights we shared,

In your embrace, every worry spared.

Those times are gone, but I'm still ensnared,

By the ghost of love, I once declared.

Your voice was silk, it warmed my night,

Now I'm cold, yearning for your light.

Echoes of good times, passions bright,

Fade now to whispers, out of sight.

I watch the candle flicker low,

Feel the pull of times ago.

Still here waiting, in the afterglow,

Hoping somehow, you might show.

Oh, how we laughed, the nights we shared,

In your embrace, every worry spared.

Those times are gone, but I'm still ensnared,

By the ghost of love, I once declared.
