Ghosts

Ghosts - Danny Schmidt[00:00:00]

Swing swing gallows swing[00:00:18]

From anger back to sorrow[00:00:21]

Morning gets what midnight brings[00:00:24]

And I'll be dead tomorrow[00:00:27]

Just another ghost[00:00:31]

My wife left me last wintertime[00:00:35]

To join another man[00:00:38]

I lost her love forever[00:00:41]

And I lost my mind right then[00:00:43]

When I tried but couldn't picture[00:00:47]

Her sweet face inside my head[00:00:49]

I could only see her lover's grin [00:00:54]

It's true I killed him dead[00:00:56]

But I've always been an honest man [00:01:13]

As crystal as the sea[00:01:16]

I've always said when I've done wrong [00:01:19]

And I've said when wrong's done me[00:01:21]

So listen to my warning though[00:01:25]

I know it might sound strange[00:01:27]

To those who cast condoning eyes[00:01:31]

Upon me when I hang[00:01:34]

And let me tell you what I've learned [00:01:50]

What my guilty mind has seen[00:01:52]

Of life and then of death and[00:01:56]

Then how ghosts get stuck between[00:01:58]

There's no slamming doors [00:02:01]

No rattling chains [00:02:03]

No long black veils at night[00:02:05]

But you'd wish there was cause[00:02:08]

Then you might could die[00:02:10]

To put things right[00:02:12]

But ghosts have got no bodies left [00:02:27]

And ghosts have got no will[00:02:30]

There just etchings on your conscience[00:02:33]

By the hands that had them killed[00:02:36]

And the world it all looks yellow now [00:02:40]

And every breath is foul[00:02:42]

And the water tastes like rancid oil [00:02:46]

And the mockingbirds just howl[00:02:48]

And you can never touch someone you love [00:02:52]

It'll burn them if you try[00:02:54]

And the face inside the mirror stares back[00:02:58]

With goldfish bowls for eyes[00:03:01]

And the only dream you ever have[00:03:04]

Is of lying there awake[00:03:07]

And it never rains upon your head [00:03:10]

It spits into your face[00:03:13]

A ghost has haunted me[00:03:15]

And worn me thin[00:03:20]

I got what I deserved[00:03:23]

A thousand times again[00:03:26]

Oh listen please -- my final words[00:03:28]

Before you bring yourself[00:03:36]

To watch the final length of cord[00:03:38]

Cause ghosts don't die[00:03:55]

When hands take hands [00:03:57]

And ghosts are not released[00:03:59]

It's ash to ash and dust to dust [00:04:02]

Or beast and back to beast[00:04:05]

I hope your heart is large[00:04:08]

And that there's room enough in you[00:04:10]

For the ghost you choose to make of me[00:04:13]

And the ghost that haunts me too[00:04:17]

Swing swing gallows swing[00:04:33]

From anger back to sorrow[00:04:36]

Hide your eyes and wash your wings[00:04:40]

Cause I'll be dead tomorrow[00:04:42]

Just another ghost[00:04:46]
