lyrics

Ghosts

I see the lights, I see the lights, I recognise your face from a long, long time ago.
I see your face, I see your face, maybe you are someone I should know.

I call your name, I call your name, you lead me to a place I used to go.

My life. My world. The times I tried to tell that girl, my hopes, my fears.
I thought that I could fight them all. This time, next time.
I seem to spend most of my life just waiting.
Waiting for you. Waiting for you. Waiting for you.

Lyrics by Terry Welbourn © 1980 : Dead Good Tunes/Street Corner Music Ltd.
