You cannot hug a shadow's neck
You cannot kiss a silhoutte
But I've done both, time and time again
You reel me in like rain on a tin roof
I open the door to let you in
You are not there
The sky is clear
There's not a cloud in sight
[Chorus:]
And my believing in a ghost
My wishing on a star
And my loving you the most
Because I can't be where you are
And I am 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 (?)
And all the day will fly away
[Chorus:]
And my believing in a ghost
My wishing on a star
And my loving you the most
Because I can't be where you are
And I am wishing you were here
Cause I know you cannot be
Am I going crazy dear
To let you get the best of me
[Instrumental]
[Chorus:]
And my believing in a ghost
My wishing on a star
And my loving you the most
Because I can't be where you are
And I am 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
You cannot kiss a silhoutte
But I've done both, time and time again
You reel me in like rain on a tin roof
I open the door to let you in
You are not there
The sky is clear
There's not a cloud in sight
[Chorus:]
And my believing in a ghost
My wishing on a star
And my loving you the most
Because I can't be where you are
And I am 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 (?)
And all the day will fly away
[Chorus:]
And my believing in a ghost
My wishing on a star
And my loving you the most
Because I can't be where you are
And I am wishing you were here
Cause I know you cannot be
Am I going crazy dear
To let you get the best of me
[Instrumental]
[Chorus:]
And my believing in a ghost
My wishing on a star
And my loving you the most
Because I can't be where you are
And I am 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
