To me, this song is about moving on from being with someone who isn't "there" with you, meaning you're in a relationship with them but they're not putting their heart in it the way you are. you're walking with a ghost. yet, they won't let you go. They "insist" on being with you, they drag it out and keep you with them. they run hot and cold, they "stay" and "go". Its almost like they aren't into you the way you are into them, yet they don't want to let you go either. Finally, you end it... and even though they keep using their old tricks to try to keep you with them, you're done. or at least, you're trying to assure yourself that you're done..
Ya think you just might have read a little too much into those few lyrics :D The song's about a guy who has a woman on him mind, but not in his bed. (He saves that for many others perhaps, although really his steady g/f at this time.) He believes that this ghost wants him to continue to think about her, but I'm guessing it's the booze and drugs and high from all that sex that's made him delusional. She's just a ghost, probably like Casper who talks with strays and really any growing old thing that breathes.
