Dan Fogelberg Lyrics for Song: Ghosts
 Lyrics for Album: The Innocent Age [1981]
 
 
 
 29308>Sometimes, in the night I feel it
 
 Near as my next breath and yet, untouchable
 
 Silently the past comes stealing
 
 Like the taste of some forbidden sweet
 
 
 
 Along the walls, in shadowed rafters
 
 Moving like a thought through haunted atmospheres
 
 Muted cries and echoed laughter
 
 Banished dreams that never sank in sleep
 
 
 
 Lost in love and found in reason
 
 Questions that the mind can find no answers for
 
 Ghostly eyes conspire treason
 
 As they gather just outside the door
 
 
 
 And every ghost that calls upon us
 
 Brings another measure in the mystery
 
 Death is there to keep us honest
 
 And constantly remind us we are free
 
 
 
 Down the ancient corridors
 
 Through the gates of time
 
 Run the ghosts of days that we left behind
 
 
 
 Down the ancient corridors
 
 Through the gates of time
 
 Run the ghosts of dreams that we left behind
 
 
 
 Sometimes, in the night I feel it
 
 Near as my next breath and yet, untouchable
 
 Silently the past comes stealing
 
 Like the taste of some forbidden sweet
 
 
 
 And every ghost that calls upon us
 
 Brings another measure in the mystery
 
 Death is there to keep us honest
 
 And constantly remind us we are free
 
 
 
 Down the ancient corridors
 
 And through the gates of time
 
 Run the ghosts of days that we left behind
 
 
 
 Down the ancient corridors
 
 And through the gates of time
 
 Run the ghosts of dreams that we left behind
 
 29308>
