looking for the ghost of what once was you
crawling over the bones of the dearly departed
hoping that you may have left a clue
searching in attics and basements alike
flashlight in hand, peering through dusty light
i spy everywhere, but i remain in despair
as i never get you into my sight
not giving up, i go down by the brook
but i find nothing but a weeping moon
i walk all about as leaves crunch underfoot
just wishing that i may get to see you soon
searching through towers and dungeons both
by torchlight i look for the ghost of my love
inspecting in the cracks, i try as i might
as i feel like jumping from the heights above
when i feel that i have searched the last spot
when i think that i have reached the end
i will just simply stop and turn around
and i will start my whole search again...

searching through tombs and catacombs
looking for the ghost of what once was you
crawling over the bones of the dearly departed
hoping that you may have left a clue
searching in attics and basements alike
flashlight in hand, peering through dusty light
i spy everywhere, but i remain in despair
as i never get you into my sight
not giving up, i go down by the brook
but i find nothing but a weeping moon
i walk all about as leaves crunch underfoot
just wishing that i may get to see you soon
searching through towers and dungeons both
by torchlight i look for the ghost of my love
inspecting in the cracks, i try as i might
as i feel like jumping from the heights above
when i feel that i have searched the last spot
when i think that i have reached the end
i will just simply stop and turn around
and i will start my whole search again...
