A Ghost

You cannot hug a shadow's neck

you cannot kiss a silhouette

but I've done both

time and time again

you reel me in like rain on a tin roof

when I open the door to let you in

you are not there, the sky is clear

there's not a cloud in sight

am I believing in a ghost?

am I wishing on a star?

am I loving you the most?

because I can't be where you are

and I am wishing you were here

'cause I know you cannot be

am I going crazy, dear?

your secret eyes, they touch my skin

I wish that I could pretend

but as you know

that really ain't my field

I sit around, looking so much serious

and I stand still, lay in dark period

but all the day will fly away

am I believing in a ghost?

am I wishing on a star?

am I loving you the most?

because I can't be where you are

and I am wishing you were here

because I know you cannot be

am I going crazy, dear?

to let you get the best of me

am I believing in a ghost?

am I wishing on a star?

am I loving you the most?

because I can't be where you are

and I am wishing you were here

'cause I know you cannot be

am I going crazy, dear?

am I going crazy, dear?

am I going crazy?

to let you getthe best of me
