Lyric Sheet

Chasing a Ghost

I have read the first article of love.
She said we've got something we can both be proud of.
Then I read articles two and three.
She said I'm not so sure, I think I disagree.

Sometimes when I look the picture seems so real.
It's everything you want and it's everything you feel.
This heart of gold.
Is just impossible to hold

I hear those words you say.
Blow a kiss and wave.
And I'll watch those lights as they slowly fade away.

And it feels cold as ice, and you can't fight the chill.
You have to pay a price for the sorrow that you feel.
You learned the lesson twice, still you try to climb the hill.
It sometimes it takes the pain for a broken heart to heal.

All these things we need the most.
In the end we're chasing ghosts.

All the things you wanted, and all that you believed
Tempted by the fruit from the poisoned apple tree.
I wonder how it feels to know what you have done
Everything was over before it had begun.

Sometimes I can look and the pictures are unreal
Everything you've lost is everything you steal
This heart you sold
was just impossible to hold

You have heard the words I say.
Each and every day.
But I'll close my eyes as you slowly fade away.

And it feels cold as ice, and you can't fight the chill.
You have to pay a price for the sorrow that you feel.
You learned the lesson twice, still you try to climb the hill.
It sometimes it takes the pain for a broken heart to heal.

All these things we need the most.
In the end we're chasing ghosts.
