There's a ghost in my bedroom, it haunts me at night.
|
I've asked him to leave, but he keeps stopping by.
|
Just when I think that I'm alone, it shows up again with a friend this time.
|
And now this is getting old.
|
I don't know what to do.
|
Metaphorically, this ghost is you.
|
|
Now this ghost in my bedroom it gives me advice,
|
He promised one day that he'd teach me to fight.
|
Now when I think that I'm alone, he comes up my way with a devil's smile singing,
|
"This is now my home. You're my wish come true."
|
When you reach that golden cloud, I'll be there with you.
|
|
If there were monsters in the closet,
|
Well, I don't think I would be surprised.
|
I hear them call out from my window.
|
They try and trick me to come outside.
|
(I won't let you down)
|
We talked all day,
|
I can't tell if he's real or a made-up version of her again.
|
Never alone 'cause I've got you.
|
Get this out of my head.
|
|
No I won¡¯t waste away my love onto something new.
|
If there's only one way out, I'll come back for you.
|
|
If I get stuck out there forever,
|
Tell everyone that I said goodbye.
|
You're on my lifelong list of wishes,
|
And I could bring you back, but we don't belong here now.
|
|
If he stays, well that just means I¡¯ve got numbered days
|
'Til I go back to my little world where it's just me and my imaginary friends.
|
|
So go on, love, find a new direction,
|
(hold my heart, keep it for protection).
|
And don't get stuck on your way.
|
The other side's a scary place.
|
(Do your best not to be afraid),
|
Lose it all when we run away.
|
(Letting go of the little things you know that I do).
|
|
There's a ghost in my bedroom, and he's dying to meet you,
|
(Ah, ah).
|
God knows he's heard all about you.
|
I guess he's friendly enough though.
|
I'll see him more,
|
(There's a ghost in my bedroom)
|
Always sneaking roses in your bed,
|
(Ah, ah).
|
He's in your bed, says he won't let you down.
|
He will, he will, he will.
|
|
(There's a ghost in my bedroom),
|
(Ah, ah).
|
(He will, he will, he will),
|
(When the world is crashing down, when the world is crashing down). [x2]
|
|
Softly, slowly how can I go down?
|
I want you to notice when I let go.
|
