olivia rodrigo - backseat ghost lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i still check your street on google maps
even though you moved last june
and i still keep that voice note
where you said you loved me too

you’re just a name that hurts to say
but silence hurts me more
i trace the outline of your lies
on my bedroom floor

+++

[pre+chorus]
every time i laugh too loud
i hear you in the sound
you’re gone but somehow
you’re still hangin’ ’round

+++

[chorus]
you’re a ghost in the backseat
of my midnight drives
a flash in the rearview
of a better time
you’re a song that i skip
but still memorize
you’re the bruise on my heart
that i romanticize
yeah, you’re not here —
but you’re still mine

+++

[verse 2]
i date new boys with your old face
they say i’ve got a type
but they don’t know they’re stand+ins
for someone i can’t rewrite

i dye my hair, i change my clothes
but i can’t change the past
i scream your name in my head
but it never fights back

+++

[pre+chorus]
every time i feel okay
you haunt the good away
you’re the echo i hate
but i let you stay

+++
[chorus]
you’re a ghost in the backseat
of my midnight drives
a flash in the rearview
of a better time
you’re a song that i skip
but still memorize
you’re the bruise on my heart
that i romanticize
yeah, you’re not here —
but you’re still mine

+++

[bridge]
tell me how you linger like a perfume on my skin
when i washed you off a thousand times again
is love just a habit or a cruel trick of the mind?
’cause i’m dancing with shadows
and pretending they’re kind

+++

[final chorus]
you’re a ghost in the backseat
of my midnight drives
you’re the reason i still
avoid exit 5
you’re a dream that i fake
when i close my eyes
you’re the lie i believe
just to feel alive
yeah, you’re long gone —
but you’re still mine

+++

[outro]
you’re still mine
(just a ghost… just a ghost…)
in the backseat of my life
