Ghosts

Holly Cole

Stay with me for a little while

You've nowhere to go, I've nowhere to go

Makes me so happy when you smile at me



Work all your life, you end up with nothing

Live in one room like a bum

Once I flew in a plane and I fought in the war

I lived in a castle but I slept on the floor

And I don't want to be all alone anymore

I'm sorry



Out in the street, the coloured kids playing

Where my own little boy used to play

So I sit in this chair and I ache with the gout

Or I talk to myself cause I'm scared to go out

I just want to know what was it all about?

I'm sorry
