Me and the Ghosts of St. Andrews
She appeared from a late August rain
At an inn by the shores of St. Andrews
White summer dress, soaked through with angel tears
Just as a moth to a flame
There was no way on Earth to resist her
We sat by the fire and we talked like we'd been there for years
We shared more in one night than most lovers share in a lifetime
We came closer to heaven, 'cause heaven was ours to lose
I promised her I would remember this moment forever
Me and the ghosts, me and the ghosts of St. Andrews
Me and the ghosts
As the sun poured out its last light
I said, if she'd stay I'd protect her
From the wandering shadows, as lost as they are
Her smile, it seemed to ignite
As we laughed about spirits and specters
Just an excuse to be holding her close in my arms
We shared more in one night than most lovers share in a lifetime
We came closer to heaven, 'cause heaven was ours to lose
I promised her I would remember this moment forever
Me and the ghosts, me and the ghosts of St. Andrews
Me and the ghosts
Maybe it wasn't right, to be holding her all through the night
But I knew that when morning came, it would take her away
By dawn, I was alone again
Not a trace of that girl to hold on to
I barely remember the brush of her lips on my skin
With every August rain
At that inn by the shores of St. Andrews
I still wait by the fire, and she always comes in
We share more in one night than most lovers share in a lifetime
We come closer to heaven, 'cause heaven is ours to lose
We're destined to share in this moment, now and forever
Me and the ghosts, me and the ghosts of St. Andrews
Me and the ghosts
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
At an inn by the shores of St. Andrews
White summer dress, soaked through with angel tears
Just as a moth to a flame
There was no way on Earth to resist her
We sat by the fire and we talked like we'd been there for years
We shared more in one night than most lovers share in a lifetime
We came closer to heaven, 'cause heaven was ours to lose
I promised her I would remember this moment forever
Me and the ghosts, me and the ghosts of St. Andrews
Me and the ghosts
As the sun poured out its last light
I said, if she'd stay I'd protect her
From the wandering shadows, as lost as they are
Her smile, it seemed to ignite
As we laughed about spirits and specters
Just an excuse to be holding her close in my arms
We shared more in one night than most lovers share in a lifetime
We came closer to heaven, 'cause heaven was ours to lose
I promised her I would remember this moment forever
Me and the ghosts, me and the ghosts of St. Andrews
Me and the ghosts
Maybe it wasn't right, to be holding her all through the night
But I knew that when morning came, it would take her away
By dawn, I was alone again
Not a trace of that girl to hold on to
I barely remember the brush of her lips on my skin
With every August rain
At that inn by the shores of St. Andrews
I still wait by the fire, and she always comes in
We share more in one night than most lovers share in a lifetime
We come closer to heaven, 'cause heaven is ours to lose
We're destined to share in this moment, now and forever
Me and the ghosts, me and the ghosts of St. Andrews
Me and the ghosts
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
