INDIGO GIRLS - Ghost lyrics

rate me

There's a letter on the desktop<br>That I dug out of a drawer<br>The last truce we ever came to<br>In our adolescent war<br>And I start to feel the fever<br>From the warm air through the screen<br>You come regular like seasons<br>Shadowing my dreams<br><br>And the mississippi's mighty<br>But it starts in minnesota<br>At a place that you could walk across<br>With five steps down<br>And I guess that's how you started<br>Like a pinprick to my heart<br>But at this point you rush right through me<br>And I start to drown<br><br>And there's not enough room<br>In this world for my pain<br>Signals cross and love gets lost<br>And time passed makes it plain<br>Of all my demon spirits<br>I need you the most<br>I'm in love with your ghost<br>I'm in love with your ghost<br><br>Dark and dangerous like a secret<br>That gets whispered in a hush<br>(don't tell a soul)<br>When I wake the things I dreamt about you<br>Last night make me blush<br>(don't tell a soul)<br>And you kiss me like a lover<br>Then you sting me like a viper<br>I go follow to the river<br>Play your memory like a piper<br><br>And I feel it like a sickness<br>How this love is killing me<br>I'd walk into the fingers<br>Of your fire willingly<br>And dance the edge of sanity<br>I've never been this close<br>I'm in love with your ghost<br><br>Unknowing captor<br>You never know how much you<br>Pierce my spirit<br>But I can't touch you<br>Can you hear it<br>A cry to be free<br>Oh I'm forever under lock and key<br>As you pass through me<br><br>Now I see your face before me<br>I would launch a thousand ships<br>To bring your heart back to my island<br>As the sand beneath me slips<br>As I burn up in your presence<br>And I know now how it feels<br>To be weakened like achilles<br>With you always at my heels<br><br>This bitter pill I swallow<br>Is the silence that I keep<br>It poisons me I can't swim free<br>The river is too deep<br>Though I'm baptized by your touch<br>I am no worse than most<br>In love with your ghost<br><br>You are shadowing my dreams<br>(in love with your ghost)<br>(in love with your ghost)<br>(in love with your ghost)
