You measure a man by the ghost of a love

Who walks in those shoes silently haunting you

like a keepsake of beautiful memories
    C/G           ( C/G          G )

you painted your life in black and in white 
        C9                    ( G    D/F#)
but you left out the color of love
       D                              Em
you've lived through the love of your past for so long

you've forgotten how to open up
