With an open hand I greet your ghost
Set flowers by the curb aside
And reach as I never reached in life
Without regret or doubting eyes
I see you still
Afraid to move away
From the dimming hallway light inside
You are my favorite ghost by far
Just as you were
Once alive
"What hurts the most is sleeping with your ghost" isn't entirely accurate here. I guess sometimes a ghost can be more fondly regarded, due to memories, etc.
