When We Were Ghosts
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We sold our children off to the wolves
Been making deals we the devil for a long long time
Well I listen and I heard the earth
I heard her telling the angels that there's not much time
Slow down, sleep now
Slow down, you're too loud
Well me an Jesus went our separate ways
I took my money and I went to the middle of the city
I gambled it all away
City lights at night sometimes are not so pretty
I was a ghost then and I walked this lonely street
I was a ghoooost then and I took your sweet sweet smile away
I was a ghoooooooost, I was a ghost
I was a ghoooooooost, I was a ghost
Running through my blood like a hurricane oh no
Running through my blood like a hurricane oh no
You were a ghost then and you ran that lonesome race
You were a ghost then and you took my sweet sweet smile away
You were a ghoooooooost
Sweet Sweet sunshine where'd you go all the lights are gone and I can't go home
Sweet Sweet sunshine where'd you go all the lights are gone and I can't go home
You were a ghost then and you ran that lonesome race
You were a ghost then and you took my sweet sweet smile away
You were a ghoooooooost then you were a ghost
You were a ghoooooooost then you were a ghost
