Ghosts That We Knew lyrics

You saw my pain, washed out in the rain

Broken glass, saw the blood run from my veins

But you saw no fault, no cracks in my heart

And you knelt beside my hope torn apart

But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view

And we'll live a long life

So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light

'Cause oh they gave me such a fright

But I will hold as long as you like

Just promise me we'll be alright

So lead me back

Turn south from that place

And close my eyes to my recent disgrace

'Cause you know my call

And we'll share my all

And our children come, they will hear me roar

So give me hope in the darkness, that I will see the light

'Cause oh they gave me such a fright

But I will hold as long as you like

Just promise me that we'll be alright

But hold me still, bury my heart on the cold

And hold me still, bury my heart next to yours

So give me hope in the darkness, that I will see the light

'Cause oh they gave me such a fright

And I will hold on with all of my might

Just promise me that we'll be alright

But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view

And we'll live a long life
