Outrun a Ghost Lyrics

In the dark, you thought you'd said goodbye

But it doesn't work like that

And though we all live different lives

Our souls will not stay trapped

In the light, we all have second thoughts

About the things we've said and done

Doesn't matter what we've been taught

But when our race is run

We all know

You can't outsmart a spirit

You can't outrun a ghost

So you might as well raise a glass and offer up a toast

To the good times you remember

And those that wouldn't last

The past is never dead

It's not even past

Last we spoke, you let it slip

In the cover of the night

Something 'bout your bag of tricks

And I came along for the ride

What's done is done, but it won't stay quiet

Yesterday will have its say

And it's because, not in spite

Time will not be swayed

We all know

You can't outsmart a spirit

You can't outrun a ghost

So you might as well raise a glass and offer up a toast

To the good times you remember

And those that wouldn't last

The past is never dead

It's not even past

In the dark, you thought you'd said goodbye

But it doesn't work like that

You can't outsmart a spirit

You can't outrun a ghost

So you might as well raise a glass and offer up a toast

To the good times you remember

And those that wouldn't last

The past is never dead

It's not even past
