The Ghost of You Lingers - Spoon

If you were here

Would you calm me down?

You settled this part

Feelings I fight (all the strangers in town)

Feeling so bright (would know if you were here)

The feelings I fight (would you ease my mind?)

Yeah (Come on!)

The sleep fled from my eyes

And I, I know that I need some

Give a thought to the one that you know

Or would you calm me down

When the night gets shadowed

We fast

We put on the clinic

If you were here

It felt good to me

(would you calm me down)

Can’t see I’m losing it

Must have set up the scene

(The man asleep knockup)

Put on a clinic

(I see it) But I will need to write

(we settled this part) They’re all alive

Oh, would you ease my mind?

Yeah

(The ghost of you lingers)

Put on a clinic till we hit the wall

(And leaves)

Just like a sailor with his wools beat soft

Come on

I had a light bad noon that could be put back together

My life

So light

Would you settle this part?

If you were here

Would you calm me down?

The ghost of you lingers

And leaves

I always think about it

Oh, would you calm me down?
