HAUNTED

HAUNTED

Something drifted past my window in the wind,
Somethings moving in the hall,
Canā€™t say this house is empty since you said goodbye
Iā€™m not lonely at all

A sliver of the moon reflected in my glass,
the bitter taste of memories
A wisp of smoke a dying cigarette
The fading glow of you and me

No need to visit thereā€™s no reason to call
Itā€™s only me here and Iā€™m not lonely at all
Iā€™m just haunted by your memory
Iā€™m haunted

I stare out the window from your favorite chair
Shadows flicker voices call
The lacy curtains shiver in the cold night air
Your phantom faces line the wall

Something drifted past my window in the wind,
Somethings moving in the hall,
Canā€™t say this house is empty since you said goodbye
Iā€™m not lonely at all
Iā€™m not lonely at all
Iā€™m not loneLy

Thank you sir, it was just as much fun writing the music as writing the lyrics.

Thank you maā€™am,
a smart ghost knows the hinted at, the unseen are far more scary.
i lived from 1993 to 2013 in a antique ā€œhauntedā€ Hotel.
most ghost arenā€™t funnyā˜ŗļø.
thanks for reading/listening.

Did you whisper?
Perhaps a prayer
Through parched lips
