And I had a dream
|
About my old school
|
And she was there all pink and gold and glittering
|
I threw my arms around her legs
|
Came to weeping
|
Came to weeping
|
|
And I heard your voice
|
As clear as day
|
And you told me I should concentrate
|
It was all so strange
|
And so surreal
|
That a ghost should be so practical
|
Only if for a night
|
|
And the only solution was to stand and fight
|
And my body was loose and I was set alight
|
But she came over me like some holy rite
|
And although I was burning, you're the only light
|
Only if for a night
|
|
In the grass was so green against my new clothes
|
And I did cartwheels in your honour
|
Dancing on tiptoes
|
My own secret ceremonials
|
Before the service began
|
In the graveyard doing handstands
|
|
And I heard your voice
|
As clear as day
|
And you told me I should concentrate
|
It was all so strange
|
And so surreal
|
That a ghost should be so practical
|
Only if for a night
|
|
And the only solution was to stand and fight
|
And my body was loose and I was set alight
|
But she came over me like some holy rite
|
And although I was burning, you're the only light
|
Only if for a night
|
|
Madam, my dear, my darling
|
Tell me what all this sayings about
|
Tell me what all this sayings about
|
|
And I heard your voice
|
As clear as day
|
And you told me I should concentrate
|
It was all so strange
|
And so surreal
|
That a ghost should be so practical
|
Only if for a night
|
|
Only if for a night
|
