Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Escape reality
Life's real enough
Forget mortality
It's coming soon enough
Remember her lips
Or her tender arms
[Verse 2]
And don't be afraid of the ghost of love
It'll haunt you as long as you want
The ghost of love
A round of applause and a toast of love
Get most from love
With hope from above
[Verse 3]
Hey, now, now
Forget about nations
They're strong enough
Next generations
They're comin' soon enough
Let's do it right now
With our tender arms
[Verse 4]
And don't be afraid of the ghost of love
It'll haunt you as long as you want
The ghost of love
A round of applause and a toast of love
Get most from love
With hope from above
[Verse 5]
Alright now
[Verse 6]
And don't be afraid of the ghost of love
It'll haunt you as long as you want
The ghost of love
A round of applause and a toast of love
Get most from love
With hope from above
[Verse 7]
Hope from above
Oh, so much love (Oh, so much love)
So, so much love (So much love, love, love, love )
Oh, from above
Ghost of love
