Your Ghost

if i walk down this hallway
tonight, it's too quiet
so i pat through the dark
and call you on the phone
push your old numbers
and let your house ring
till i wake your ghost

let him walk down your hallway
it's not this quiet
slide down your receiver
sprint across the wire
follow my number
slide into my hand

it's the blaze across your nightgown
it's the phone's ring

i think last night, you were driving circles around me
i think last night, you were driving circles around me
i think last night, you were driving circles around me
i think last night, you were driving circles around me

i can't drink this coffee
till i put you in my closet
let him shoot me down
and let him call me off
take it from his whisper
you're not that tough

it's the blaze across your nightgown
it's the phone's ring

i think last night, you were driving circles around me
