I went to bed with a Ghost tonight, he slid in by my side-- all gentle-like, all lovely hands, that held me, long and tight. I went to sleep with a Ghost tonight, I lay here in his arms-- a wisp of a kiss, a loving caress-- his touch so warm and right. I fell in love with a Ghost tonight- he says nothing at all- just holds me close, my lovely Ghost, and wards away the sky. I left my Ghost alone tonight, away from his touch. He leaves me, too- at dawn, too soon. Alone, I face this petty light.
