And this is called "Ghosteen"
ย
This world is beautiful
Held within its stars
And I keep it in my heart
The stars, your eyes
I loved them right from the start
A world so beautiful
And I keep it in my heart
(One, two, three, four)
A ghosteen dances in my hand
Slowly twirling, twirling all around
A ghosteen dances in my hand
Dancing, dancing, dancing all around (in my hand)
Ghosteen dances in my hand (in my hand)
Slowly twirling, twirling all around (all around)
Ghosteen dances in my hand (in my hand)
Dancing, dancing, dancing all around (all around)
A ghosteen dances in my hand (in my hand)
Dancing, dancing, dancing all around (all around)
A ghosteen dances in my hand (in my hand)
Slowly twirling, twirling all around (all around)
ย
Here we go
ย
Here comes the moonlit man
ย
Got a suitcase in his hand
He's movin' on down the road
Things tend to fall apart
Starting with his heart
He kisses you lightly and he leaves
Leaves your sleeping body
Curled and dreaming
Around your smile
Around your smile
ย
The three bears watch the TV
They age a lifetime, O Lord
Mama bear holds the remote, papa bear he just floats
And baby bear he has gone
To the moon in a boat
Oh, in a boat
ย
I'm speaking about love now
And how the lights of love go down
You're in the back room washing his clothes
Love's like that you know, it's a tidal flow
The past with its fierce undertow
Oh, they won't let us go
We can't let you go
ย
If I could move the night, I would
I'd turn the world around if I could
Oh, there's nothing wrong with loving something
You can't hold in your hand
You're sitting on the edge of the bed
Smoking and shaking your head
There's nothing wrong with loving something
ย
That can barely even stand
ย
Well, there goes the moony man
Got a suitcase in his hand
Well, the road is lined with animals
That rise from their blood and walk
Well, the moon won't get a wink of sleep
If I stay all night and talk
If I stay all night and talk
ย
Thank you very much
