Giving up the Ghost

Lyrics

Deep in the night she quietly creeps
 Sometimes she moans, sometimes she weeps
 When the wind starts a howlin' out of control
 She? s trouble in mind, she? s nothin' but soul
 Now don? t feel afraid there? s nothin' to fear
 It? s just strange visitations year after year
 She gave me somethin' I needed but now the feeling is gone
 And it? s high time I told her she? s gonna have to move on
 From the eerie lake to the hills that shake
 I? ve been haunted on every coast
 I might miss her I know but I? m letting it go
 I? m givin' up the ghost, givin' up the ghost
 Last night she came in at the usual time
 Twelve is the number that the church bells did chime
 But the wind didn? t blow, there was barely a breeze
 Just a light shinin' over the sycamore trees
 From the eerie lake to the hills that shake
 I? ve been haunted on every coast
 I might miss her in know but I? m letting it go
 I? m givin' up the ghost, givin' up the ghost
 Now feelin' much better but I? m still on the brink
 I just got a letter in vanishing ink
