Ghosts

Pick your battles, he said, pick them carefully
Don't climb a mountain if you can walk gingerly
Pick your friends for keeps, pick your lovers for less
Isn't it remarkable how messy it gets?

It's a long way back
A long way back, yeah
A long way back
Since we were close
The past becomes a ghost

Queen of disappointment, hangs her head down low
Feeling sorry for herself, it's all she knows
Funny how the pain comes like a rush to the head
Who wants to be happy when there's drama instead?

It's a long way back
A long way back, yeah
A long way back
Since we were close
The past becomes a ghost

See the coast in the pouring rain
See New Jersey slipping away
Foreign girls float away
The ghost of yesterday

Oh, it's a long way back, yeah
It's such a long way back, yeah
A long way back
Since we were close
The past becomes a ghost
Oh, the past becomes a ghost
