Lyrics

Ghost, ghost I know you live within me
Feel as you fly
In thunderclouds above the city
Into one that i
Loved with all that was left within me
Until we tore in two
Now wings and rings and there's so many
Waiting here for you

And she was born in a bottle rocket, 1929
With wings that ring around a socket
Right between her spine
All drenched in milk and holy water
Pouring from the sky
I know that she will live for ever
She won't ever die

She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid
To watch the morning paper blow
Into a hole where no one can escape
Dee, de de de de..

And one day in new york city baby
A girl fell from the sky
From the top of a burning apartment building
Fourteen stories high
And when her spirit left her body
How it split the sun
I know that she will live for ever
All goes on and on and on and
She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid
To watch the morning paper blow
Into a hole where no one can escape
Dee, de de de de..
