A Ghost

Line by line, we drew it up

Had our fill and threw it up

Broke the will and tore it up

I can't even say why

All my past is shorin' up

Beating on my door, won't stop

Could've lied, so I made it up

And I can't even say why

I can't even say why

And I wonder as I walk away

Did I ever love it all the way?

Did I open up my heart and say it like I mean it?

From the end right to the start

From seeing to believing

Ah, but I saw a ghost

In the mirror, coming nearer

A little close for comfort tonight

Ooh I said it's easier to be alive

Than hide under your pillow

While your life is passing you by

One by one, they carry us

Break our hearts and marry us

Dig us up and bury us

I wish I could say why

All my past is sure enough

Beating on my door will stop

Couldn't lie, so I make it up

But I don't even know why

I don't even know why

And I wonder as I walk away

Did I ever love it all the way?

Did I open up my heart and say it like I mean it?

From the end right to the start

From seeing to believing

Ah, but I saw a ghost

In the mirror, coming nearer

A little close for comfort tonight

Ooh I said it's easier to be alive

Than hide under your pillow

While your life is passing you by

So live your life

Don't waste your time

Ooh live your life

Don't waste your time

I saw a ghost

In the mirror, coming nearer

I saw a ghost

In the mirror, in the mirror

Oh, I saw a ghost

In the mirror, coming nearer

A little close for comfort tonight

Ooh I said it's easier to be alive

Than hide under your pillow

While your life is passing you by

So live your life

Ooh

Oh

Oh
