Ghosts

I'm runnin' along the rocks of the river
 And the water's as cold as the snow
 The man is chasing behind me
 And I can't afford to falter or slow
 I find solace in what we believe
 Or the hush of a cool gentle rain
 But there's something we love in the mystery
 Of a man in the midst of a change
 She laughed and said I was goin' nowhere
 'Cause it's nowhere that she's ever been
 When I get to that place, she'll remember my face
 And say, "Hey man, I knew him when he was younger"
 But she never loved me at all
 She laughed when I was in pain
 'Cause there's something that we are all frightened of
 In a man in the midst of a change
 Oh, out on the roof to inquire of the sky
 The existence of ghosts in my life, who's to blame, you or I?
 No one would answer me
 They just stared with the weight of the world I pretend not to feel
 The windmill is poised for the battle
 But the fool understands not the game
 He believes in his mission, "Predestined position"
 Amazing the grace of her name
 Oh, he loves her now as he loved her then
 Rocinante remembers the days
 When I whistled and sat waiting patiently

 They just stared with the weight of the world I pretend not to feel
 Yeah, I'm runnin' along the rocks of the river
 With the freedom to step where I choose
 Though I can't stop to rest, I like traveling best
 And besides, I've got nothing to lose from it
 I find solace in all the extremes
 In pleasure as well as in pain
 I just wish he would let me explain to you
