Came across a ghost the other day
I started to run but he pleaded with me to stay
his clear lips, they had plenty, plenty to say
for forty long years no ears pointed their way
he was a man, oh man, he was not unlike me
the only difference was our technology
he said I don’t know much but I know what it takes to be free
You gotta clear your soul, (Clear your soul) of all its debris
For all he said a couple of sentences hung in my head
and tears he shed he swore they’d never be, never be he said
Chorus
Don’t you go draw your curtains X3
Till the sun has set
In this life we spent so many days
bickering not listening trying to find a better wage
but oh true livin can be done at any age
it envelopes your soul as the years take hold good lord it keeps the cold away
I swear I’ve met a thousand ghosts in this lifetime yet
But I’ll never forget the time I stayed, the time he said
