A ghost

You cannot hawk 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 where you are?
And am I wishing you were here
Because 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 much too serious
And I stand-still lame duck period
But all the days
Are flying away

Am I believing in a ghost?
Am I wishing on star?
Am I loving you the most
Because I can't where you are?
And am I wishing you were here
Because I know you cannot be here?
Am I going crazy, dear...
To let you get the best of me?

Am I believing in a ghost?

Am I going crazy, dear...
Am I going crazy, dear...
Am I going crazy, dear...
Am I going crazy...
To let you get the best of me?
