David Gilmour Yes, I Have Ghosts
[Verse 1]
The heat of the sun stayed on through the night
Made spectres of strangers playing games with my sight
I passed through the station, a face in the crowd
The whistle was blowing, the barrier came down
[Verse 2]
There was my baby, in another's embrace
I called out her name in shame and disgrace
[Refrain]
Yes, I have ghosts, not all of them dead
Making dust of my dreams, spinning round and around
Around in my head
[Verse 3]
Train on the tracks, teeth of the zip
The slider moves down, we were joined at the hip
Stealing the groove, the widening gap
Unfastening rails from a past with no map
[Refrain]
Yes, I have ghosts, a fleeting sight
It's always the living that are haunting my nights
[Verse 4]
Where is the sweet soul that you used to be
Gone like a thistle that's blown on the breeze
I guess when it's over, this haunting will end
The waiting, the baiting, my killer, my friend
[Refrain]
Yes, I have ghosts, not all of them dead
And they dance by the moon, millstones white as the sheet
On my bed
