Death has always fascinated me
But nothing could have prepared us for that day
Are you better off without me now that time is standing still
Sorry my love, I had to go away

But I followed you to work the other day
It amazes me how cruel this world can be
You spend your day helping the ungrateful and the sick
But nothing you could do could revive me

And I'll follow you around, you don’t even know
'Cause I'm just a phantom in your mind
Sometimes you cry and I think that I should go
But I’ll follow you until it's your time

I've noticed that our youngest has been getting picked on
I'm frustated, is there nothing I can do?
I wish I had the power to bring you all to me
Or figure out a way to get back to you

But I'll follow you around, you don't even know
'Cause I'm just a phantom in your mind
And sometimes you cry and I think that I should go
But I’ll follow you until it’s your time

Who was that gentleman at the front door
He's been coming ’round for a month or so
Does he help you forget the sadness in your heart
Well it's breaking mine and I wish that he would go

Well I've heard it said a million times or more
You don't know what you got ’till it ain't there
On the outside looking in, let me go back there again
But I'll follow you until you meet me here

But I'll follow you around, you don't even know
'Cause I'm just a phantom in your mind
And sometimes you cry and I think that I should go
But I'll follow you until it's your time

I'll follow you until it's your time
'Cause I'm just a phantom in your mind
'Cause I'm just a phantom in your mind
