Lyrics
GHOST OF DESIRE
It’s the ghost of desire
In the lines on my face
In the slow-burning fire
Even age can’t erase
The ghost…
The ghost of desire
In the sound of my voice
In the chords that inquire
When you must make a choice
The ghost…
Time goes
Time goes on
The tide flows
Time goes on
It’s the ghost of desire
In the parts that I play
As I preach to the choir
As I’m having my say
The ghost…
The ghost of desire
In the cut of my hair
In the thoughts I admire
In the dreams that I dare
The ghost…
Time goes
Time goes on
The tide flows
And time goes on
All the aches and the pains –
My body’s telling me things
That I’d rather forget
There are losses and gains
In what every day brings
I still don’t see the point of
Fading out just yet
It’s the ghost of desire
In the chances I take
In the risk I acquire
The mistakes that I make
The ghost…
The ghost of desire
In a vivid blue sky
Walking high on the wire
Gone –
In the blink of an eye
The ghost…
Time goes
Time goes on
The tide flows
Time goes on
Time goes on
Time goes on
The tide flows on
And time goes on
Like the ghost of desire
The ghost of desire
Time goes on
Time goes on
