lyrics

If our love honey was a big old car
I guess we'd be carrying some broken old parts
Still chugging on but girl I'm afraid
This engine is gonna give in someday
And leave us like ghosts
Nothing but ghosts

If our love darling was as wide as the sea
I wonder if you'd still cross it for me
The waters are wild and the storm rages on
But I still pray that a calmness will come
And leave us like ghosts
Nothing but ghosts

If our love honey was a dirty old war
Would you still aim right for my heart
And then walk away with tears in yours
While all we dreamt was left there to die
And leave me like a ghost
Yeah just like a ghost
Nothing but a ghost

If I had a chance
Oh baby I'd try
To bring back the past
And all of the times
They haunt me at night
Like ghosts in the dark
Cause honey our ghosts
Are tearing me apart
So cast them away girl
And all your fears too
Maybe tonight we can start something new
And soar just like ghosts
Yeah just like ghosts
Baby like ghosts
