My Favorite Ghost

I know that it's too late for us
But can you sing me to sleep?
I saw you there in the corner of my mind
And I know it's been a quiet week
Hopped off the plane from California
And thought I felt you on my flight
Head clear with my morning coffee
You disappear with daylight

But as far as love stories go
I just thought that you should know
That I've never felt you so close
And you're my favorite ghost

And turning my chamomile to whiskey to numb the sting of you
And you're probably at that new bar tipsy
But your spirit haunts my living room
Song on car speakers, you call me baby
And say that I was worth the drive
I don't believe you, I check the rearview
And I see you in the sea of headlights

But as far as love stories go
I just thought that you should know
That I've never felt you so close
And you're my favorite ghost

And now I feel you on the New England coast
Part of everything that I wanted the most
I untie the knot but you're part of my soul
My favorite ghost
Living with my favorite ghost
