She has the unique ability to convey a complete picture of the situation with her voice and through the movement in her voice she can portray every emotion and sensation. The sentence "I'm just a whisper of smoke" is a good example of this: you actually see a plume of smoke in the abandoned house.

    I haunt these halls,
    I'm just a whisper of smoke,
    I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire,
    That once burned out of control,
    You took my body and soul,
    I'm just a ghost in this house
    I don't care if it rains,
    I don't care if it's clear,
    I don't mind stayin' near,
    There's another ghost here,
    He sits down in your chair,
    And he shines with your light,
    And he lays down his head,
    On your pillow at night
    I'm just a ghost in this house,
    I'm just a shadow upon these walls,
    I'm living proof of the damage heartbreak does,
    I'm just a whisper of smoke,
    I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire,
    That once burned out of control,
    You took my body and soul,
    I'm just a ghost in this house
    That once burned out of control,
    You took my body and soul,
    I'm just a ghost in this house

    To me, this is about the death of a relationship, while one is still in it. A marriage where two people hardly know each other anymore- going thru the motions & not meeting each other intimately anymore. The person can be sitting right next to you, & you're talking, but not about anything that really matters. If you've loved long enough to share a life w/ someone, at some point, you can relate to this song. Whether or not the feeling of removal remains, this moment in a marriage has deep impact.

    God blessed me by hiding this song from me on the interwebz since my mother passed in December of 2020. This song PERFECTLY describes my father since she passed until he chased her to Heaven this past June. He was shattered by Mom's death and it was all I could do to keep him positive in the last 18 months. I honestly think he was more worried about me than his own passing. When my bride had a major surgery and he saw how I handled it I think he decided he could go...and so...he did. Now he and mom are in Heaven but I see their ghosts in the house that we are living in and I wouldn't change that for the world. Love you guys. See you soon.

      Raymond Hailey: Noble thoughts from the heart. At 79, I can attest that true love never dies, and our heart-breaking losses mold us into who God wants us to be. Although Jesus was (and is) the Son of God, the act of dying on a cross was necessary to make Him our Savior - the One from whom all true love flows. He will comfort you now if you ask Him - right now - wherever you are.
