Ghost of a Girl

Oh, I know that I’ll be living with the ghost of the girl I love for the rest of my life
Oh, I’m sure she’s probably living pretty happy somewhere,
but there’s a part of her that died with me in that old upper there on Grand,
In the patter of my heart, in the tremble in my hand
Every shadow on the floor, every memory on the wall,
It’s all I can see now, it’s all I’m thinking of
Banging on the windows, knocking at the door, haunting me in every room
Heart like a river flowing through the halls, haunting me in every room
Just living with the ghost of the girl I love for the rest of my life
Oh, I wonder if she thinks I’m living happy somewhere or if a part of me has died
Down here on my own in this empty bed,
All the promises you broke keep on running through my head
Every shadow on the floor, every memory on the wall
It’s all I can see now, it’s all I’m thinking of

Keep on Giving Love
03:45

Beneath my skin is a shield which protects a flowery field
Surrounding my heart, and it beats like an army
Hello again, so you know, I had to let you go
It wasn’t easy, it was slow, and my, oh my how the pain would grow
So I wrote a letter to myself and I put it in the mail
And I opened it up just this morning, and this is what it said
Keep on giving love, keep on giving love, keep on giving love to everybody
Get crazy in love, dress me in love, let’s get messy in love with everybody
Back again, wrapped again in your watercolor world
And I'm drowning going down in a vandalism swirl
But life goes on with you or without you, so you decide
But I ain’t gonna go down wondering what if i had just tried
Keep on giving love, keep on giving love, keep on giving love to everybody
Stay hungry in love, pronouncing your love, every ounce of your love to everybody
Even the weakest light can shine into the face of darkness
So maybe a heart like mine can climb up from the edge of heartless

Out of Berlin
03:44

Thought a love like that was only fictional
Shooting my heart like a rocket, baby
Shaking your body like a maraca, baby
But it was gone too fast, oh so typical
Nothing gold can stay, don’t you remember?
Nothing good can ever last forever
But now you’re gone, where you went to I don’t know
How do I get back to the place I was, the man i was becoming?
I’m out of Berlin, but I’m falling into the wind that i feel around
Yeah, it’s the sound of your voice that i can’t get out of my head
I can get out of my head, Lord I hate that sound
Now I missed my train to Paris again
So I’m on my way to Brussels, baby
But I don’t have the muscle, baby
To get you out of my head is so impossible
Shaking your body like a maraca, baby
Shaking your body like a maraca, baby
But now you're gone, where you went to I don’t know
How do I get back to the place I was, the man I was becoming?
I’m out of Berlin, but I’m falling into the wind that I feel around
Yeah, it’s the sound of your voice that I can’t get out of my head
Can’t get you out of my head, no I don’t want you around

Sway, Sway, Sway
I wanna live it like, wanna give it like, wanna sing it like Elvis did
On a beach somewhere, out of reach somewhere, far away from the skids
Crooning to the moon, dancing in the blue lagoon
Where young love’s always in bloom
We’d be dreaming away by the ocean’s shore,
Dreaming away by the ocean’s shore,
Dreaming away by the ocean’s shore,
Dreaming away by the oh
Like a pearl you are, in the world you are, you are hidden in plain sight
So come down with me, don’t make a sound with me
We can hide away all night
Crooning to the moon, dancing in the blue lagoon
Where young love’s always in bloom
We’d be dreaming away by the ocean’s shore
Dreaming away by the ocean’s shore
Dreaming away by the ocean’s shore
Dreaming away by the oh
I wanna ride your wave
You pull me in, you twist and bend me, you make me sway
Vacation, eternal play
You give me shelter, you give me a place to stay
You make me sway, sway, sway
I want that Pina Colada life, want your body dancing in stereo
To Calypso, let’s have a disco, let’s dance like this beach is our patio
Baby, dreaming away by the ocean’s shore
Dreaming away by the ocean’s shore
Dreaming away by the ocean
Dreaming away by the oh
I wanna ride your wave
You pull me in, you twist and bend me, you make me sway
Vacation, eternal play
You give me shelter, you give me a place to stay
Oh you make me sway, sway, sway
