Edwin Mccain - Ghosts Of Jackson Square lyrics

Ghost on the street today

Doorways of Jackson Square

In tinsel and tap shoes

Mardi Gras beads in her hair

Down to the graveyard

She wrung out her hands

As if he will meet her

All day she stands

So don't leave me

And I know you're justified

So don't leave me

Cause a part of you in me died

We wish ourselves beautiful

We cry in the night

And it's not the love you feared

But the fall from the height

My personal ledges

Afraid to look down

My crepe paper bridges

Enough water to drown

So don't leave me

And I know you're justified

So don't leave me

Cause a pare of you in me died

And I see the lonely souls

Searchin

But before the heartbreak rose

Draw the curtain

I'm a ghost on the streets today

Surrounded by eyes

I feel them peer through me

And my harlequin disguise

If it makes you feel better

Come join me the while

And there's love in these open arms

Some love in my spirits' smile

So don't leave me

And I know you're justified

So don't leave me

Cause a part of you in me died...
