Story Behind The Song
Divorce after years of marriage is a killer to the soul. That's all I can say... the song says the rest.
Song Description
When a person loses a limb, they often suffer from "Phantom Limb Pain". When a person loses someone they deeply loved and had been with for a long time, it can be like losing a limb. These people can be very haunted by sensations that, that person is still there.

Lyrics
This home has become so haunted
The bedroom is cold and bare
The kitchen table holds nothing
But the shadow of two once there
Nothing can express this sense of loss
Sensations I feel of late
Like something has been removed from me
My mind and soul amputate
[chorus]
Phantom Love
Can you feel it?
Phantom Love
Can't you feel it grow?
I feel the cut connections
Extensions made and lost
I move on without you
I dance this dance alone
My feet move with the rhythm
My heart keeps up the same pace
My voice drives the engine
But I can?t fill this space
[chorus]
Phantom Love
Can you feel it?
Phantom Love
Can't you feel it grow?
