(Life is phantasmagoria now) (And every shadow is reachin' out to me) (Reachin' out to me) (Reachin' out to me) (Reachin') Mid-dark thoughts of the great tombstone All I loved I loved alone The second son of a setting sun Scores to settle one by one Years of love have been forgot Years of trouble years of draught Years of ever gently tapping On your chamber all for naught And every ghastly apparition Claims to be the soul I'm missing Even though I keep on saying That chair is empty now Can't you see, can't you see? That chair is empty now Can't you see, can't you see? That chair is empty now Life is phantasmagoria now And every shadow is reachin' out to me Life is phantasmagoria now And all that's left is the stranger part of me Life is phantasmagoria now And all that's left is the stranger part of me Life is phantasmagoria now And all that's left is the stranger part of me By a shore of silver ashes Where a sea of sorrow crashes There is someone who remembers Someone who bears my resemblance Someone who has all the seeming Of a ghost forever dreaming And when I call it always answers "I cannot tell you anything" And every ghastly apparition Claims to be the soul I'm missing Even though I keep on saying That chair is empty now Can't you see, can't you see? That chair is empty now Can't you see, can't you see? That chair is empty now Life is phantasmagoria now And every shadow is reachin' out to me Life is phantasmagoria now And all that's left is the stranger part of me Life is phantasmagoria now And all that's left is the stranger part of me Life is phantasmagoria now And all that's left is the stranger part of me Can't you see, can't you see? That chair is empty now Can't you see, can't you see? That chair is empty now That chair is empty now Life is phantasmagoria now Life is phantasmagoria now And every shadow is reachin' out to me Life is phantasmagoria now And all that's left is the stranger part of me Life is phantasmagoria now And all that's left is the stranger part of me Life is phantasmagoria now And all that's left is the stranger part of me
