Living With the Ghost

Marry me to the blue skyBury me in that long last drop of hard rainMeet me where they stop timeThat's you to me on the shovel that's digging this graveTill I can waltz on a moonbeamTill I can find a way to turnall tears into wineI'll hitch my ride to a day dreamCan't unkiss the lips that love isleaving behindI ain't living with the ghostNo future living in the pastI've seen what hate has done to hopeTomorrow wasn't built to lastI ain't living with the ghostHow can I scream I'm scared to breatheI wrote each word you gave theToastBut we were fire and gasolineI ain't living with the ghostI set my sails over wheat fieldsRode waves of amber let a new sunshine on my faceI dropped the sword put down my shieldI left your scars for the starsGuiding my wayI traded hurting for healingI must admit that I was reelingNow I'm feeling just fineTraded nightmares for dreamingGo tell your shadowsThat I got out aliveI ain't living with the ghostNo future living in the pastI've seen what hate has done to hopeI found the tree I cut the ropeTomorrow wasn't built to lastI ain't living with the ghostHow can I scream I'm scared to breatheI wrote each word you gave theToastBut we were fire and gasolineI ain't living with the ghostLast night I had this dreamI saw a man wash his feetIn the church holy waterHe worked up to his kneesFrom his arms to his neckSaid I'm over my headHe was crying trying to get some reliefLord, I'm just trying to get some reliefI had this dreamThat man was meI ain't living with the ghostNo future living in the pastI've seen what hate has done to hopeI found the tree I cut the ropeTomorrow wasn't built to lastI ain't living with the ghostHow can I scream I'm scared to breatheI wrote each word you gave theToastBut we were fire and gasolineNow I ain't living with the ghost
