Holy ghosts, |
|
When do you come out to play? |
|
'Cause if the Lord is gonna find me, |
|
He'd better start looking today. |
|
|
|
Last week my baby hit the slopes. |
|
I spent the weekend setting traps in the road. |
|
I should have been cutting out my eyelids, |
|
you'll never guess what baby did when she got home. |
|
|
|
Na na na na |
|
Now at least the birds are singing to me, |
|
but what they're trying to say, |
|
I don't know. |
|
|
|
(you're beautiful) |
|
I think they come from the cold |
|
(for all your big mistakes) |
|
I think they come from the cold |
|
(you stayed the same) |
|
to the city that don't snow. |
|
|
|
So I drove until we both broke down. |
|
I was stranded in a border town |
|
believing the motel TV would bring me to safety, |
|
but between MTV and Mr. O'Reilly |
|
I've come to find, that I can't be defined |
|
so I turned it off, now convinced I would cross |
|
Took one last look at the gold |
|
as it shattered on a mountaintop |
|
|
|
Now I believe the sun, it's like a symphony. |
|
But what it's trying to play, |
|
I don't know. |
|
|
|
(you're beautiful) |
|
I think it's come for the cold. |
|
(for all your big mistakes) |
|
I think it's come for the cold. |
|
(you stayed the same) |
|
To the city that don't snow. |
|
|
|
C'mon, Holy ghosts |
|
When do you come out to play? |
|
'Cause if the Lord is gonna find me, |
|
He'd better start looking today. |
|
|
|
So I can rise with the river |
|
We all float before we sink |
|
So pray for satellites, |
|
Pray for courtesy |
|
and pray that it can climb mountains to me! |
|
I say goodbye to the canyon. |
|
I will set sail to the streets |
|
where I don't care to be forgiven |
|
I want to be forgotten. |
|
I don't care to be forgiven |
|
When Lord I only want to be forgotten! |
|
|
|
Now I receive a call from my family |
|
and what they started to say |
|
brought me home. |
|
|
|
(you're beautiful) |
|
They think I'm beautiful |
|
(for all your big mistakes) |
|
They think I'm beautiful |
|
(you're beautiful) |
|
for all my big mistakes. |
