Not the Ghost Songtext
von The Crane Wives

Oh, turn your lamps down low (Turn your lamps down low)
Keep the light so dim that you can′t see
What's out there ahead of you
My dear, there are secrets here (There are secrets here)
I will carry them home
Carry them home

If only I could break the chain of disappointment
Weighing me down
Shake off the ghosts that whisper warnings
Whenever you′re not around (You're not around)
I won't be afraid of all the things I wanted
It′s the fear, and not the ghost
That leaves me haunted, haunted

See what a life you lead (What a life you lead)
You′re an anchor for all the heaviest regrets inside you
Escape, we collect mistakes (We collect mistakes)
I will carry them home
Carry them home


If only I could break the chain of disappointment
Weighing me down
Shake off the ghosts that whisper warnings
Whenever you're not around (You′re not around)
I won't be afraid of all the things I wanted
It′s the fear, and not the ghost
That leaves me haunted, haunted

Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah

Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah, woah
Oh, woah, woah
Woah, woah
