|
He don't get out much these days
|
But I wouldn't call him lazy
|
He sees the dogs lurk into the room
|
And he knows the walls will be up soon.
|
|
And he felt like he was doin' all right
|
And the sun sets down another night.
|
|
And days could read like the wild
|
Of a river rushin' to the sea
|
Here he comes again down the stairs
|
Another passes without saying "hello".
|
|
And he thought that he was doin' all right
|
And he says "hello".
|
|
(can't) Can't forget the ghost
|
Oh, Can't no
|
No I can't (no I can't) forget the ghost
|
Of this night.
|
|
Dogs who wag their tales
|
And birds who sing
|
The words are hardly
|
Little things.
|
|
And he thought that he was doin' all right
|
And so he wipes a tear.
|
|
(can't) Can't forget the ghost
|
No I can't, can't forget the ghost
|
No I can't (no I can't) forget the ghost
|
Of this night.
