Ghosts

Some ghosts live in canyons and some ghosts live on hills
And some ghosts live on city streets where people see them still
And some ghosts have the answers as to why there’s ghosts at all
And some are just reflections of the light upon the wall

And there are ghosts, there are ghosts, there are ghosts here,
And there are ghosts there there are ghosts there are ghosts here
And there are ghosts, there are ghosts, there are ghosts here,
And there are ghosts there are ghosts there, ghosts here, ghosts here

I saw a ghost sit quietly and let his thoughts be heard
I saw a ghost take to the wing and then become a bird
I asked a ghost to comfort me and hold me when I cried
I felt him wrap around me and a heard a tender sigh

And there are ghosts, there are ghosts there are ghosts here, 
And there are ghosts there are ghosts there are ghosts here, 
And there are ghosts, there are ghosts, there are ghosts here,
And there are ghosts there  are ghosts there ghosts here, ghosts here

And there are ghosts here
And they’ve been here all along
And they are with us
Like the ripples on the pond
And they can hear you
If you talk to them in song

And there are ghosts, there are ghosts there are ghosts here, 
And there are ghosts there are ghosts there are ghosts here, 
And there are ghosts, there are ghosts, there are ghosts here,
And there are ghosts there there are ghosts there ghosts here, ghosts here

So if you feel a puff of wind that blows across your hand
Remember all the many feet that walked upon the land
And don’t rely on logic for it falls away like sand

And there are ghosts, there are ghosts there are ghosts here, 
And there are ghosts there are ghosts there are ghosts here, 
And there are ghosts, there are ghosts, there are ghosts here,
And there are ghosts there are ghosts there ghosts here, ghosts here
