Lyrics
Well we're back in Crete
And you've got the chills
You bent dancer's feet
And I'm worrying about the bills
You rock 'n' roll schoolgirl
You said the mechanism was fixed
You let your lips curl
It's funny how some things stick
Well here it comes again
This riddling the rain
But I'm still a long way
I'm not even close
Tell me who do I pay
To get rid of your ghost
And your love of life
The way you walk downhill
You could have been my wife
I guess there's some holes you don't fill
A genuine proposal
A shifting of skin
Then a quick disposal
To the cut off bin
Well here it comes again
This riddling the rain
But I'm still a long way
I'm not even close
Tell me who do I pay
To get rid of your ghost
And two weeks in Lent
A time of denial
You deceptive innocent
Yes I know this is final
And pipes can break
And milk can go sour
But I'm still waking up with aches
At early morning hours
Well here it comes again
This riddling the rain
But I'm still a long way
I'm not even close
Tell me who do I pay
To get rid of your ghost
Invaded by pictures
Of a hospital bed
Drips, cuts and stitches
And your shaking head
A necessary performance
Maybe an exorcism
I never did see you dance
Is this what it's like in prison
Well here it comes again
This riddling the rain
But I'm still a long way
I'm not even close
Tell me who do I pay
To get rid of your ghost
A reluctant bitter feminist
A boy with thin wrists
A tall man with a gift
And I'd never been kissed
From my German window
Things move pretty slow
All I wanna know
Is there another arrow in the bow
Well here it comes again
This riddling the rain
But I'm still a long way
I'm not even close
Tell me who do I pay
To get rid of your ghost
Well here comes the twist
Though you can't be traced
I still can't resist
The distant burn of your face
And I'm back in Crete
It's a morgue of silence
But the sun's looking sweet
Coming up over the island
But I'm still a long way
I'm not even close
Tell me who do I pay
To get rid of your ghost
