Tom Petty - Rebels lyrics

You ghost visits every night at midnight

I can hear the clanking of your chains

First it frightened me but now somehow

I'm glad to see you've come again

And I used to be so terrified to hear you

Moaning like the hinges on the door

But now that late night sound is like a lullaby to me

Though I know I won't be sleeping anymore

I know I won't be sleeping anymore

Your ghost, your ghost

Opens the door

Your ghost, your ghost

Don't scare me no more

Don't scare me no more

Every night we sit up in the darkness

Talk about whatever's on your mind

Someone did away with you and so you're doomed to limbo

That's another theory you've opined

That's a spooky theory you've opined

Your ghost, your ghost

Creeps on the floor

Your ghost, your ghost

Don't scare me no more

Don't scare me no more

Your ghost and my human living body

Turns out that we are the best of friends

If the story is you're coming back to haunt me

Then I'm pleased to say it has a happy end.
