Lyrics for Song: Ghosts
Lyrics for Album: Alas I Cannot Swim [2008]



He walked down a busy street

Staring solely at his feet

Clutching pictures of past lovers at his side

Stood at the table where she sat

And removed his hat

In respect of her presence

Presents her with the pictures and says

These are just ghosts that broke my heart before I met you

These are just ghosts that broke my heart before I met you



Opened up his little heart

Unlocked the lock that kept it dark

And read a written warning

Saying I'm still mourning

Over ghosts

Over ghosts

Over ghosts

Over ghosts that broke my heart before I met you



Lover, please do not

Fall to your knees

It's not

Like I believe in

Everlasting love



He went crazy at nineteen

Said he'd lost all his self esteem

And couldn't understand why he was cry, cry, crying

Crying



He would stare at empty chairs

Think of the ghosts that once sat there

The ghosts that broke his heart

Oh the ghosts that broke my heart

The ghosts that broke his heart

Oh the ghosts that broke my heart

The ghosts the ghosts the ghosts the ghosts the ghosts the ghosts

The ghosts that broke my heart before I met you



Lover, please do not

Fall to your knees

It's not

Like I believe in

Everlasting love



He says I'm so lost

Not at all well



Oooh x2



Do as done there is nothing left to be

Turned out I'd been following him and he'd been following me

Do as though after it was over

We were just two lovers crying on each others shoulders

And I said



Lover, please do not

Fall to your knees

It's not

Like I believe in

Everlasting love



Lover, please do not

Fall to your knees

It's not

Like I ever believed in

Everlasting love
