indigo girls - ghost (demo version)

There's a letter on the desktop that i dug out of the drawer the last truce we ever came to in our adolescent war and i start to feel a fever from the warm air through the screen you come regular like seasons shadowing my dreams and the mississippi's mighty but it starts in minnesota at a place that you can walk across with five steps down and i guess that's how you started like a pinprick to my heart but at this point you rush right through me and i start to drown and there's not enough room in this world for my pain signals cross and love gets lost and time past makes it plain of all my demon spirits i need you the most i'm in love with your ghost dark and dangerous like a secret that gets whispered in a hush (don't tell a soul) when i wake the things i dreamt about you last night make me blush you kissed me like a lover then you sting me like a viper i will follow to the river play your memory like a piper i feel it like a sickness how this love is killing me i would walk into the fingers of your fire willingly and dance the edge of sanity i've never been this close in love with your ghost unknowing captor, you'll never know much you pierce my spirit, but i can't touch you. can you hear it, a cry to be free i'm forever under lock and key as you pass through me now i see your face before me i would launch a thousand ships to bring your heart back to my island as the sand beneath me slips i burn up in your presence and i know now how it feels to be weakened like achilles with you always at my heels and my bitter pill to swallow is the silence that i keep it poisons me i can't swim free the river is too deep though i'm baptised by your touch i am no worst at most, in love with your ghost
