Ghost

I burned your Levi’s and your pearl snap shirts

Ashes to ashes and dirt to dirt

Buried our love in a deep dark hole

Now you’re just a ghost

If you’re such a poet, write an epitaph

You and I both know you ain’t coming back

I sure loved you but I let you go

Now you’re just a ghost

Honey, now you’re just a ghost

My spirit’s high, so don’t you hang around

Silver-tongued devil, you can’t hold me down

Silly boy, only heaven knows

That I ain’t afraid of ghosts

I replaced the headboard with a chiseled stone

Here lies the meanest man I’ve ever known

Go rest in peace with every lie you ever told

‘Cause now you’re just a ghost

Honey, now you’re just a ghost

My spirit’s high, so don’t you hang around

Silver tongued devil, you can’t hold me down

Silly boy, even heaven knows

That I ain’t afraid of ghosts

I’ve got 10,000 angels here to pull me through

I’ve cried the last tear that I’ll cry for you

You’re just a shell of a man that I used to hold

Now you’re just a ghost

Honey, now you’re just a ghost

And I ain’t afraid of ghosts
