Ghost Stories

My friends are all out at that friday bonfire
First time I've been out since you said goodbye
They're lookin' at me like they all want to know
'Bout how I've been since we went up in smoke

I tell 'em how I fall asleep dreamin' of you and wake up into a nightmare
I tell 'em at night I see you pull in the drive, even now that you're not there
I tell 'em how I hear you talkin' on the phone
But when I call there's no one home
You're gone but I ain't alone, boy, you know how to haunt me
And I'm tellin' ghost stories, yeah
I'm tellin' ghost stories (yeah)

They tell me that I should get out on the town
But I can't seem to get out of this haunted house
I've been facin' my demons, they know where to hide
Someone get me a priest, please, get God on the line

I tell 'em how I fall asleep dreamin' of you and wake up into a nightmare
I tell 'em at night I see you pull in the drive, even now that you're not there
I tell 'em how I hear you talkin' on the phone
But when I call there's no one home
You're gone, but I ain't alone, boy, you know how to haunt me
And I'm tellin' ghost stories, yeah
I'm tellin' ghost stories, yeah, yeah

If all my prayers and promises can't bring our love back from the dead
Maybe if you hear me out, I'd put it all to rest

I'd tell you how I fall asleep dreamin' of you and wake up into a nightmare
I tell you at night I see you pull in the drive even now that you're not there
I tell you that I'm wishin', waitin' by the phone
For you to call and come back home
Boy, don't leave me alone
I need you more than you know
If there's even a chance, take my hand so I won't be (I don't wanna be)
Tellin' ghost stories, yeah
'Cause I'm tellin' ghost stories, yeah
