Verse one
Nightly you retrace your steps again to return to the scene of the crime
It's uncanny how you hover in the air over the wreckage that you left behind
I want yooooooou, but you're a poltergeist
I want yooooooou but, baby, the price is high
I want yooooooou and now i've said it twice so mary dim the lights
Verse two
Really, when you come into the room it's not helping me, seeing you now
It's not easy, in this phosphorescent gloom, telling waking dreams apart anyhow
I want yooooooou, but you're a poltergeist
I want yooooooou but, baby, the price is high
I want yooooooou and now i've said it twice so mary dim the lights
Bridge
Cups and saucers crashing in but houdini blows the gag again
Then no one's a true believer
I want yooooooou, but you're a poltergeist
I want yooooooou but, baby, the price is high
I want yooooooou and now i've said it twice so mary dim the lights
Outro
