Ghost in My Room
Lyrics
Verse 1
You left your coat on the back of my chair
Now it keeps moving when nobody's there
A cold little finger taps twice on the glass
I turn around and you vanish too fast
Pre-Chorus
I hear your laugh in the hallway again
I count to four, then I count to ten
If you're here, quit hiding from me
Come out, come out, let me see
Chorus
Ghost in my room, got me up on my feet
You make the floorboards dance to the beat
Ooh, you disappear when I turn around
Then rattle the pictures and shake the whole house
Ghost in my room, don't you scare me tonight
I know you're just lonely, so stay for a while
Ooh, when the clock strikes two, you come through
My little ghost, I'm dancing with you
Verse 2
The kitchen light flickers, the kettle clicks on
My favorite old record starts playing a song
You draw a small heart in the steam on the pane
Then spell out my name and erase it again
Pre-Chorus
I hear your laugh in the hallway again
I count to four, then I count to ten
If you're here, quit hiding from me
Come out, come out, let me see
Chorus
Ghost in my room, got me up on my feet
You make the floorboards dance to the beat
Ooh, you disappear when I turn around
Then rattle the pictures and shake the whole house
Ghost in my room, don't you scare me tonight
I know you're just lonely, so stay for a while
Ooh, when the clock strikes two, you come through
My little ghost, I'm dancing with you
Bridge
Maybe you were waiting for somebody to know
Maybe this old house is the only home you own
When the morning finds us, you can fade away
Till then, my friend, you can have the whole dance floor
Final Chorus
Ghost in my room, got me up on my feet
You make the floorboards dance to the beat
Ooh, you disappear when I turn around
Then rattle the pictures and shake the whole house
Ghost in my room, don't you scare me tonight
I know you're just lonely, so stay for a while
Ooh, when the clock strikes two, you come through
My little ghost, I'm dancing with you
Outro
My little ghost, I'm dancing with you
One last spin, then you vanish from view
