I saw a ghost on the stairs
and sheets on the tables and chairs
the silverware swam with the sharks in the sink
even so I don't know what to think
I've been longing for
daisies to push through the floor
and I wish plant life would grow all around me so I won't feel dead anymore
so I won't feel dead anymore
I saw a bear in the den
Reading my textbooks again
Bats flowed like traffic as they poured from the attic
Heaven knows I could really use a friend
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
The trees keep the tempo when they sway in time
A quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings would you strum on mine?
I've been longing for
Daisies to push through the floor
I wish plant life would grow all around me so I wont feel dead anymore
So I wont feel dead anymore
Your spirit is sweet so pull of your sheet and give me a ghost of a smile
Show me your teeth cos you're a teddy beneath
so just grin and bear it a while
Just grin and bear it a while
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
The trees keep the tempo when they sway in time
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings would you strum on mine?
The brook babbles on about nothing at all
A new leaf turns over I'm willing to fall
Tonight I'm busting out
Of this old haunted house
Cos I'm sick of waiting for
All those spider webs to crawl all around me
Cos I wont feel dead anymore
And I'm not afraid anymore
Id rather waltz than just walk through the forest
The trees keep the tempo when they sway in time
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
If I were to pluck on your heartstrings would you strum on mine?
