The Fixx - Phantom Living Lyrics

Phantom living
A ghost before my eyes
A deep thrill feeling
That someone roams my life

Sets off in the air at night
Steers me round to mother earth
Turns this search
Into a pair of learning eyes

Staring at a photograph
Doesn't stir the memory
Of something I thought would last
Underneath it all

Phantom living
Phantom living

I lose myself
With a distance in my mind
Throwing out deception
Emplanted, steals my time

I feel the meaning
Your words cannot describe
And perverts the answer
Of this action underlined

Staring at an open book
Just becomes the story
Of something I thought would last
Underneath it all

Phantom living
Phantom living
Phantom living
Phantom living

So staring at an open book
Just becomes the story
Of something I thought would last
Underneath it all

Phantom living
Phantom living
Phantom living
This is phantom living
