Just Like Seeing A Ghost Lyrics

So you finally showed up on my doorstep

After years of exploding my heart

I guess that's just the way of the evening

Things end twice before they start

I've been walking a tightrope to nowhere

Expecting the least from the most

You finally arrived

Found out I'd survived

It was just like seeing a ghost

My heart was a drift on the skyline

My feelings were lost in a book

I'd just given in to that feeling within

That shouted

You won't get another look

The candles were burning the incense

While the incense blew out towards the coast

Out there in the dark

You set one more spark

Yes it was just like seeing a ghost

I was sorting out damp dirty laundry

In the back of a red Chevrolet

I guess that's just the way they spell disaster

I work far too hard for to play

I've been spending my life in a coma

While you played the ultimate host

You've taken my mind

Oh my God I almost went blind

It was just like seeing a ghost

So you finally showed up on my doorstep

After years of exploding my heart

I guess that's just the way of the evening

Things end twice before they start

I've been walking a tightrope to nowhere

Expecting the least from the most

You finally arrived

Found out I'd survived

Yes it was just like seeing a ghost

Out there in the dark

You lit one more spark

Yes it was just like seeing a ghost

You've taken my mind

I almost went blind

It was just like seeing a ghost
