Howie Day - Ghost lyrics

lately i've been thinking

lately i've been dreaming with you

i'm so resitant to this type of thinking

oh, now it's shining through

i was alone for the last time

before my night's vacation with you

alive from the first

now i'm denied by the ghost of you

you take yourself a photograph and laugh at me

please

i know there's little use in crying

it's more wide awake and dying then i'm used to

i thought we'd walk these streets together

now i'm hoping that i'll never have to meet you

step aside from all this anger

and somewhere in between i can feel you

ask me should we try again

i'm thinking no

y'know, it's not what i believe in

it's not what i believe in

you take yourself a photograph and laugh at me

please

you make yourself a photograph and laugh at me

please

no i, wanna taste you, love

no i...no i

no i, just wanna taste you, love

standing in your shoes

i turn and now

you're standing bare in my doorway

i only wish that i had been prepared

i'm gonna have to go along with your way

just take the plastic camera out

it's the pants you borrowed in the driveway

alive from the first

now i'm denied by the ghost of you

make yourself a photgraph and laugh at me

please

you make yourself a photograph and laugh at me

please

no i, wanna taste of love

no i...

i was alive from the first

now i'm denied by the ghost of you

Ghost, the first single from ''Australia'', has been performed live at the Boston Music Awards in 2001 where Howie picked up the award for “Best Debut Album by a Singer-Songwriter”

In 2001, Howie's live version of Ghost began encapsulating ''Beams of Light'', a tease song inspired by the Flash Mountain ride at Disneyland. At the end of playing Ghost, Howie will kick in a double time intro to bring crowds out of their slow groove into an upbeat dance mood!
