There's A Ghost in My House - Graham Parker

There’s a ghost in my house

The ghost of your memories

The ghost of the love you took from me Where our love used to be Only shadows from the past I see

Time can’t seem to erase

The vision of your smiling face

Though you found someone new

I can’t get over you

There’s a ghost in my house

I can’t hide (ghost in my house)

From the ghost of your love that’s inside (ghost in my house)

It keeps on haunting me (ghost in my house)

Just keeps on remiding me (ghost in my house)

In my mind I know you’re gone

But my heart keeps holding on To the memories of those happy times

To the love that once was mine

Though we’re far apart

You’re always in my heart

There’s a ghost in my house

I can’t hide (ghost in my house)

From the ghost of your love that’s inside (ghost in my house)

You’re still such a part of me (ghost in my house)

Still so deep in the heart of me (ghost in my house)

I just keep hearing your footsteps on the stairs

When I know there’s no-one there

Every day I love you more

So much more than the day before

Sittin' in my easy chair

I feel your fingers running through my hair

Lookin' down in my coffee cup

I think I see your face lookin' up All alone in my gloom

You voice echoes through the room

There’s a ghost in my house

And I can’t hide (ghost in my house)

From the ghost of your love that’s inside (ghost in my house)

It keeps on haunting me (ghost in my house)

Just keeps on reminding me (ghost in my house)

I just keep hearing your footsteps on the stairs

When I know there’s no-one there

You’re still such a part of me (ghost in my house)

Still so deep in the heart of me (ghost in my house)

I can’t hide (ghost in my house)

From the ghost of your love that’s inside (ghost in my house)
