Text Písně: Ghost - Indigo Girls

There's a letter on the desktop
that I dug out of a drawer
The last truce we ever came
to from our adolescent war
And I start to feel the fever
of the warm air through the screen
You come regular like seasons shadowing my dreams

The Mississippi's mighty,
but it starts in Minnesota
At a place where you can walk
across with five steps down
And that's just how you started
like a pinprick to my heart
But at this point you rush right
through me and I start to drown

There's not enough room
in this world for my pain
Signals crossed and love
gets lost and time passed makes it plain
Of all my demon spirits I need you the most
I'm in love with your ghost
I'm in love with your ghost

Dark and dangerous like a secret
it gets whispered in a hush (don't tell a soul)
And when I wake the things
I dreamt about you last night
make me blush (don't tell a soul)
When you kiss me like a lover
and you sting me like a viper
I go follow to the river play
your memory like the piper

And I feel it like a sickness
how this love is killing me
But I would walk into the fingers
of your fire willingly
Dance the edge of sanity
I've never been this close
In love with your ghost
oooooh-oooooooh-ooooooh-oooooooooh
oooooh-oooooooh-ooooooh-oooooooooh

Unknowing captor you'll never know
how much you
Pierce my spirit
but I can't touch you
Can you hear it a cry to be free
Oh I'm forever under lock and key
As you pass through me

Now I see your face before me
I would launch a thousand ships
To bring your heart back to my island
as the sand beneath me slips
I burn up in your presence
and I know now how it feels
To be weakened like Achilles
with you always at my heels

This bitter pill to swallow is
the silence that I keep
It poisons me I can't swim free
the river is too deep
Though I'm baptized by your touch
I am no worse at most
In love with your ghost

Amy:
In love with your ghost
In love with your ghost
Emily:
You are shadowing my dreams
