Lyrics Ghost in the Town - Joshua James

Ghost in the Town

Dearest Claire, there’s a ghost in town
A ghost in the town from where you came
Dearest Claire there are cracks in the wall
And voices in the hall you can’t escape
Can you remember when we all were young,
All of us younger than today.
Have you noticed all those times on the road
Cuz all who passed it over please be safe
And I won’t keep quiet for with all of my heart
And I can’t read wrinkles on your face
And I don’t have penance for the things I’ve done
I can’t explain.
There is a photo on the dash of our car
That has recently gone?
from all the sun
Could you imagine if our skin?
Would the world just be a part of what we’ve done?
Dearest Claire, there’s a ghost in town
A ghost in the town from where you came
And all the nights that the dog would bark
You stare at the wall, a crying shame
There’s a crack in the center of a kitchen floor
I’m curious no one could destroy
As I reach my hand into the dark below
I hear your voice
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
If you want me like I want you
A slow escape our law has made
A purist’s stolen virtues
And if you need me like I need you
Then our ghost?
Won’t bother me and babe, it won’t bother you.
