Like a Ghost by Ignatius Jones Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1982

[Verse 1]
At the Place Pagal I'm sitting in a chair
Waiting for some service, taking in the air
My life spins by
As I'm thinking of you

The waitress comes past, I look her in the face
Say "Bring me something fit for the human race"
She doesn't hear a word
She looks right through...

[Chorus]
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away, heh-hey)

[Verse 2]
Twelve o'clock when the winе runs out
Go out on the balcony, hear someonе shout
I look below
Is that my body on the street?
I check the mirror, there's nobody home
I can't find a razor, I can't find a comb
We've got to have a talk
'Cos you're dressed in a sheet

[Chorus]
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away, heh-hey)

[Verse 3]
Well, I really start to worry when I stand in the queue
It's starting to pour and I don't know what to do
Funny thing is
That I don't get wet

I hail a cab – but he sails out of sight
What's my name, what's my age, what am I doing in the night?
These questions and answers
I try but I forget

[Chorus]
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away, heh-hey)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away, heh-hey)

Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away)
Like a ghost
(Take a look before I melt away, heh-hey)
