From the recording Ghost
Lyrics
V1 - I watched a flower bloom,
And fade,
Take to the air in flight,
Before I could bat an eye,
I watched you float away,
Wonder if I’ll ever change
V2 - Girl it’s not near enough,
To catch you in the dim lights,
Your brown hair flowing,
The way you said my name,
How I blanked on yours,
How you stir up a panic
C - I’ll never change,
I’ll never learn,
Just what it feels like,
To be a ghost,
In someone else’s world
V3 - Blame it all on our fathers,
All the sin that’s in the blood,
‘Cept I’m full-grown now,
And still can’t fathom,
How to look you in the eye,
How I’ve grown,
So cold and guarded
C - Will I ever change,
Will I ever learn,
Just what it feels like,
To be your ghost
B - Your gentle ways,
And that angel smile,
You’re starting to wear me out,
Breaking me down
V4 - Someday I’ll change,
Someday I’ll learn,
I watched a flower bloom,
And fade,
Take to the air in flight,
And I watched you float away
