I’ve never been superstitious
I’ve never feared the unknown
But ever since you left me
I’ve believeed in ghosts
Girl, i believe in ghosts
[Chorus]
Well i’m haunted by a memory
That won’t leave or let me go
Call me crazy and i may be
But i believe in ghosts
Girl, i believe in ghosts
I swear i keep seeing shadows
I kno that i’m not alone
I feel the temperature dropping
And it chills me to the bone
[Chorus]
Should i be afraid, should i be scared
You follow me everywhere, I’m haunted
Call me crazy Hell I may be
But I believe in ghosts
[Chorus]
I’ve never been superstitious
I’ve never feared the unknown
But ever since you left me baby
I’ve believed in ghosts
Haunted by Heartache: A Modern Country Ballad
“I Believe In Ghosts” by Jason Aldean uses the metaphor of haunting to capture the lingering presence of a lost love. Instead of traditional superstition, Aldean’s narrator describes how the memory of someone departed becomes an almost supernatural force in his life. The recurring imagery of shadows, chilling temperatures, and never being alone evokes the sensation that the past is never far behind. The chorus highlights the struggle to move on, as memories refuse to fade and leave him “haunted.” Through evocative storytelling and simple yet powerful language, the song connects with anyone who has grappled with the emotional aftershocks of heartbreak.
