Ghosteen

[Verse 1]

This world is beautiful

Held within its stars

I keep it in my heart

The stars are your eyes

I loved them right from the start

A world so beautiful

And I keep it in my heart

[Bridge]

A ghosteen dances in my hand

Slowly twirling, twirling all around

A glowing circle in my hand

Dancing, dancing, dancing all around (In my hand)

A ghosteen dances in my hand (In my hand)

Slowly twirling, twirling all around (All around)

A ghosteen dances in my hand (In my hand)

Dancing, dancing, dancing all around (All around)

Here we go

[Verse 2]

There goes the moonlit man

Got a suitcase in his hand

He's moving on

Down the road

Things tend to fall apart starting with his heart

He kisses you lightly and he leaves

Leaves your sleeping body

Curled and dreaming around your smile, your smile

[Verse 3]

The three bears watch the TV

They age a lifetime, O' Lord

Mama bear holds the remote

Papa bear, he just floats

And baby bear, he has gone

To the moon in a boat, on a boat

[Verse 4]

I'm speaking about love now

And how the lights of love go down

You're in the back room washing his clothes

Love's like that, you know, it's like a tidal flow

And the past with its fierce undertow won't ever let us go

Won't ever let you go

[Verse 5]

If I could move the night I would

And I would turn the world around if I could

There's nothing wrong with loving something

You can't hold in your hand

You're sitting on the edge of the bed

Smoking and shaking your head

Well there's nothing wrong with loving things

That cannot even stand

[Verse 6]

Well there goes your moony man

With his suitcase in his hand

Well every road is lined with animals

That rise from their blood and walk

Well the moon won't get a wink of sleep

If I stay all night and talk

If I stay all night and talk
