The Ghost I Loved
2018
I stand on trail, the witness says
That guilt is written upon my face
How could've I known the girl so well?
The judge, the jury, the gallery
All shake their heads unanimously
And ask me what do I have to say for myself?
I didn't know her
I found her
And now she loves me
And every night she's been haunting my dreams
And no amount of sorcery will make her leave
She's the ghost who keeps me company
I hear the murmur lap them all
"may God have mercy on his soul"
They don't believe the truth, I guess
That a ghost appeared into my life
She meant no harm, she brought me light
She looked at me, and earnestly, said "save me from my loneliness!"
I didn't know her
I found her
And now she loves me
And every night she's been haunting my dreams
And no amount of sorcery will make her leave
She's the ghost who keeps me company
She's wailing, ah,
Among the throng, the commotion,
"Murderer!" they call,
The judge bangs the gavel and shouts "order" to all,
I'm guilty of no crime, cast aspersions all you like,
This ghost is the love of my life
I didn't know her
I found her
And now she loves me
And every night she's been haunting my dreams
And no amount of sorcery will make her leave
She's the ghost who keeps me company
I didn't know her
I found her
And now she loves me
And every night she's been haunting my dreams
And no amount of sorcery will make her leave
She's the ghost who keeps me company
Oh, my love,
Oh, my love,
Oh, my love,
Oh, my love,
