Lyrics
A GHOST IN THE NIGHT
Written by Connie Lansberg
I HAD A DREAM LAST NIGHT
I HAD TO WRITE IT DOWN
I WAN TO REMEMBER
IN CASE THERE CAME A TIME
MY DREAMS DENIED MY SLUMBER
I WENT TO MY LONELY KITCHEN
SAT IN MY ONLY CHAIR
I WANTED TO REMEMBER
WITH NO ONE BUT MYSELF
THE ONLY-NESS WE SHARED
SUDDENLY MY HAIR STOOD ON END
PULLED BY UNSEEN HANDS
IT GRABBED ME FROM BEHIND AND HELD ME TIGHT
FAMILIAR, A GHOST IN THE NIGHT
LIKE MEMORIES OF YOU
BRUTAL BUT WANTED
LIKE SHADOWS ON THE WALL
I'M BEING HAUNTED
HANDS LIPS EYES SKIN
I NEED A WORD FOR WHAT I'M IN
TRAPPED INSIDE MY DREAM
NO ONE TO WAKE ME
THIS GHOST SHOULD JUST TAKE ME
