Just Like A Ghost

from Everybody's Got A Mountain by The Heavy Set

/

lyrics

You're just like a ghost you come to me in my sleep
A haunting memory I try not to keep
I wish you away as I turn out the light
Knowing you'd come back every night

As soon as I wore this heart on my sleeve
You disappeared but you didn't leave

So why do I dream of you every night
And wake up alone in the cold grey light
You've been gone so long that it doesn't seem right
So why do I dream of you every night

Moonlight it falls on a day that is dead
Your voice is burning a hole in my head
I wished you away and that you would stay gone
Knowing you'd come back all along

As soon as I close these bloodshot eyes
You reappear and it comes as no surprise

So why do I dream of you every night
And wake up alone in the cold grey light
You've been gone so long that it doesn't seem right
So why do I dream of you every night

So why do I dream of you every night
And wake up alone in the cold grey light
You've been gone so long that it doesn't seem right
So why do I dream of you every night

You've been gone so long that it doesn't seem right
So why do I dream of you every night
