I wanna go to the ocean and send a postcard of my loneliness
Forgetting you is so elusive I run away but it?s always this
You?re the only one I love
It?s always been you
And I wish I was conscripted in the merchant marines
Shanghaied into service to sails and machines just to stay alive, oh
And my sister keeps it simple she?s a shipboard cook
She can run a line, but if you take a look, it's not easy though
'Cause I'm hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
Hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
I'm always a ghost
I tried your gypsy tarot readings, some séance stunt
I keep an open mind but I think it?s just a front
I want to believe it though
My sister says "Forget her boy, that's all that you need"
She pitches magical elixirs, potions full of mead
For a broken heart
It's too late for that
And I try to keep it simple; I try to keep it true
But it?s always been you; it?s always been you
When you sailor boys brag about the hearts that they broke
It was all just a joke; It's all just a boast, yeah yeah yeah, oh
I'm always a ghost
1 + 2 + 3 +(4)+ 1 + 2 + 3 +(4)+ 1 + 2 + 3 +(4)+ 1 + 2 + 3 +(4)+
1 + 2 + 3 +(4)+ 1 + 2 + 3 +(4)+ 1 + 2 + 3 +(4)+ 1 + 2 + 3 +(4)+
You're about as haunted as a darkened basement
I've got all the chances of a dog in a settlement
She may have her secrets, she'll never tell
I ride along without 'em on a deep sea swell
I heard there's something new; she starts to talk
She's the merry widow on the widow's walk
And I say, what do you fear what are you running from
The only thing I fear is when I go numb
And I'm hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me
Hoping you will find me
I keep hoping you will find me, yeah yeah yeah
And I try to keep it simple; I try to keep it true
It?s always been you, it?s always been you
When you sailor boys brag about the hearts that they broke
It was all just a joke; It's all just a boast, yeah yeah yeah, mmm
I?m always a ghost
I?m always a ghost
I?m always a ghost
I?m always a ghost
