Tonight I Saw a Ghost
Tonight I saw a ghost
In an old, familiar haunt
She came drifting through the door
To raise dead feelings I didn't want
Of all the spirits in this bar
She'd impair my mind the most
I thought her memory had died
Long been buried deep inside
But tonight I saw a ghost
In the hallways of my mind
She had wandered 'round for years
An unwelcome poltergeist
Playing tricks with all my fears
But after so much time
Her specter finally disappeared
At least that was until tonight
When she manifested here
A chill passed through the room
As she came floating by
And I conjured up a smile
When she caught my eye
But I know that she knows
The illusion isn't real
It's but a phantom meant to hide
All the pain I still feel
Tonight I saw a ghost
In an old, familiar haunt
She came drifting through the door
To raise dead feeling I didn't want
Of all the spirits in this bar
She'd impair my mind the most
I thought her memory had died
Long been buried deep inside
But tonight I saw a ghost
Old wounds broke open wide
I had no place to hide
When tonight I saw a ghost
In an old, familiar haunt
She came drifting through the door
To raise dead feelings I didn't want
Of all the spirits in this bar
She'd impair my mind the most
I thought her memory had died
Long been buried deep inside
But tonight I saw a ghost
In the hallways of my mind
She had wandered 'round for years
An unwelcome poltergeist
Playing tricks with all my fears
But after so much time
Her specter finally disappeared
At least that was until tonight
When she manifested here
A chill passed through the room
As she came floating by
And I conjured up a smile
When she caught my eye
But I know that she knows
The illusion isn't real
It's but a phantom meant to hide
All the pain I still feel
Tonight I saw a ghost
In an old, familiar haunt
She came drifting through the door
To raise dead feeling I didn't want
Of all the spirits in this bar
She'd impair my mind the most
I thought her memory had died
Long been buried deep inside
But tonight I saw a ghost
Old wounds broke open wide
I had no place to hide
When tonight I saw a ghost
