Miss Ghost-Don Henley

Artist：don henley Songs Title：miss ghost On a misbegotten, moonless night I stumbled in my door Disgusted with my circumstance Soaked to every pore When floating from my bedroom Came a moaning and a sigh oh, Ive had one too many Its just the wind, says i I lit up a cigarette And I poured a good, stiff drink You see, I needed to compose myself I needed time to think No sooner had I settled down The moaning came again Drifting through the silence Like some otherworldly violin I bounded up the staircase I went slippin and slidin down the hall You know, Ive been around the whole, wide world But I was not prepared at all Uninvited visitor, unsuspecting host well, I see youve made yourself at home. Good evening, miss ghost. Youre more beautiful than ever I feel just like a kid And I commence to trembling When I think of all the things we did Skin as pale as marble; lips as red as blood Imagine my surprise, my dear I thought that you were gone for good You look so lovely lying there All stretched out on your back But Im the one whos strung up here On old temptations rusty rack And in the wee small hours Is when I miss you the most And I confess it, I have missed you Miss ghost I threw open the window And I howled at the rain And I cursed the weakness of the flesh This breath and boneand this brute, reptilian brain What dirty tricks the mind can play In the lonely dead of night When you bump into the shadow Of a faded love that wasnt right Way down beneath the surface Far beyond the light of day So many things lie buried deep And baby, they should stay that way Oh, my wicked, little habit Weve really made a mess Everythings been trivialized In our vain pursuit of happiness And even though youve come for me I wont go back with you To some temporary heaven Down some empty, dead-end avenue But its been so good to have you here And I propose a toast heres to seeing through you Miss ghost.
