A Ghost

You cannot hug a shadow's neck
 You cannot kiss a silhouette
 But I've done both
 Time and time again
 You reel me in like rain on a tin roof
 When I open the door to let you in
 You are not there, the sky is clear
 There's not a cloud in sight
 Am I believing in a ghost
 Am I wishing on a star
 Am I loving you the most
 Because I can't be where you are
 And am I wishing you were here
 'Cause I know you cannot be
 Am I going crazy, dear
 Your secret eyes, they touch my skin
 I wish that I could pretend
 But as you know
 That really ain't my field
 I sit around, looking much too serious
 And I stand still, lay in dark period
 But all the day will fly away
 Am I believing in a ghost
 Am I wishing on a star
 Am I loving you the most
 Because I can't be where you are
 And am I wishing you were here
 Because I know you cannot be
 Am I going crazy, dear
 To let you get the best of me
 Am I believing in a ghost
 Am I wishing on a star
 Am I loving you the most
 Because I can't be where you are
 And am I wishing you were here
 'Cause I know you cannot be
 Am I going crazy, dear
 Am I going crazy, dear
 Am I going crazy
 To let you get the best of me
