Your ghost haunts me daily It looms over my head Fills me to my feet Overburdening and overflowing Melancholic love Consuming A smile would give life to an apparition A moment in your eyes One moment before the rest A touch can soothe the burns A moment lost in caress One moment before the rest The spirit fades into memory And you in its place I lay down my arms I prostrate at your feet My fears laid open before you One moment before the rest

You haunt me
Your ghost haunts me daily It looms over my head Fills me to my feet Overburdening and overflowing Melancholic love Consuming A smile would give life to an apparition A moment in your eyes One moment before the rest A touch can soothe the burns A moment lost in caress One moment before the rest The spirit fades into memory And you in its place I lay down my arms I prostrate at your feet My fears laid open before you One moment before the rest
