Marc Cohn - Giving Up The Ghost Lyrics
Deep in the night she quietly creepSometime she moan, sometime she weepWhen the wind starts a howling out of controlShe's trouble in mind, she's nothing but soulNow don't feel afraid there's nothing to fearIt's just strange visitation year after yearShe gave me something I needed but now the feeling is goneAnd it's high time I told her she's gonna have to move onFrom the eerie lake to the hills that shakeI've been haunted on every coastI might miss her I knowBut I'm letting it goI'm giving up the ghostGiving up the ghostLast night she came in at the usual timeTwelve is the number that the church bells did chimeBut the wind didn't blow, there was barely a breezeJust a light shining over the sycamore treesFrom the eerie lake to the hills that shakeI've been haunted on every coastI might miss her in knowBut I'm letting it goI'm giving up the ghostGiving up the ghostNow feeling much betterBut I'm still on the brinkI just got a letter in vanishing ink
