Tu, pa-la-pa-la, pa-li-pa-pa
Swirling white cloth
Cutout holes
It's my facade
Tapping tiny steps
Turn up the music
Bobbing around my head
Watching you sleep as I danced on your sheets
Embracing you secretly
I guess I was glad
To see you walk with someone else
Someone with the same air as me
Someone who laughs just like me
Someone who holds you just like me
You reached out your right hand
Towards my sweet doppelgänger
So I stepped away
And I started to dance
Tu-li, lu-pa-la-ta, lu-la-li-la
Kissing you in the dark for me was enough
Pa-li, ta-la-ta
I am just a ghost
I am just a ghost
Tu-li, lu-pa-la
I'm cheering you on from the sidelines
Forget about remembering our days
I'm still in love with you
Still in love with you
I reached out to your left hand
It went right through
Your ball joint fingers
Maybe around my eyes
It was a little bit damp
Tu-li, lu-pa-la
I'm sorry I left
If I get another chance
I would never give up the life that was dearest to you
I was dearest to you
Wake me from your cast
Sand off our crooked seams
You're my half
I'm your half
Polished resin skin
You were right
The ones who gravitate towards self-sacrifice
Are the most
Are the most selfish ghosts
Ah, lu-pa-la-ta, lu-la-li-la
Does it hurt to reopen wounds of the past?
Pa-li, ta-la-ta
I am half a ghost
I am half a ghost
Tu-li, lu-pa-la
Who were you to me?
Should I try to label this fuzzy feeling?
All I really know is I'm in love with you, you
Looking at my doppelgänger, I feared
That the day you're free of me may never be near
So I'll make sure it'd be a long time before I'm with you
I'll be your guardian, boo
