Whisper out my window, I hear the fall winds calling I feel you waiting, while you lie awake For an answer that's not coming [Chorus] Uh, whoa, cause who I am, another ghost in your bed The shell of a man, learning to love again Or a stubborn fool who can't hear a word you said Just give me the chance to bury my dead I am just alone, a lonely tree in brooklyn Climbing towards the sky line Never one seems to know Which way I should be turning [Chorus] Uh, whoa, cause who I am, another ghost in your bed The shell of a man, learning to love again Or a stubborn fool who can't hear a word you said Just give me the chance to bury my dead The fire in your eyes or the taste on my lips Look at what mess we've made, a mess we've made, Of love The fire in your eyes, wanna taste on my lips Look at what mess we've made, a mess we've made, Of love Is there a fire on the hillside, or a new horizon burning Cause I can't live a lie, and I don't know what's true [Chorus] Uh, whoa, cause who I am, another ghost in your bed The shell of a man, learning to love again Or a stubborn fool who can't hear a word you said Just give me the chance to bury The change to bury my dead.
