Ghosts Single (Oct. 2022)

Ghosts is a wonderfully haunting song that is a special to us. It's the first song that Spencer brought forward to us and it forged the definition of the the direction we were headed. We've been through several arrangements since that first basement session, but it ended up very close to the original.

It is fitting that it stood out on it's own and is not on the forthcoming album, "Put It Out" (coming 11- 02 - 23!!! )

GHOSTS

If I - can stop just one heart - from breaking, in two Then I won’t mind - wasting my time – on you

If I could stop. Stop making,

The same mistakes, the ones that are making me a fool

Then we start living, the way lovers should

Drunk on the hope - that we hoped that love would Haunted by ghosts only lovers can see

if you want to see ghosts - you got to believe - in love

I , got to, I got to, got to hold on to you

Like it’s our last day, Baby - our last day, honey - on earth – naw I Got to try, I got to try, Baby - a little harder

Let down your guard and love with your heart - for starters

With a head full of heart and a heart full of stars Lovers that stumble like drunks to the bar

Love is - a ghost - that’s been haunting me Love is - a ghost - that only my lover can see

If I - can stop just one heart from breaking, in two

Then I won’t mind - wasting my time – on you

If I can just stop. Stop making

The same mistakes - the ones that are making me a fool

Then we start living, the way lovers should

Drunk on the hope that we hoped that love would

Haunted by ghosts only lovers can see

Cause if you want to see ghosts you got to believe - in love

Love is - a ghost - that’s been haunting me Love is - a ghost - that only my lover can see
