Cécile McLorin Salvant – Ghost Song Lyrics

 

Ghost Song Lyrics by Cécile McLorin Salvant

 

I tried to keep our love going strong
But no matter how hard I try
Something went wrong
I’d like to keep our love going long
But no matter how much I lied
The truth was too strong
I cried when you decided to go
I cried much more than you’ll ever know
My pride is my only company
My pride will get the best of me

I’ll dance with the ghost of our love
I will dance with the ghost of our long lost love
I’ll carry the ghost of our love
I will carry the ghost of our long lost love
I’ll live with the ghost of our love
I will live with the ghost of our long lost love
I’ll die with the ghost of our love
I will die with the ghost of our long lost love

I will dance with the ghost of our love
I will dance with the ghost of our long lost love
I will dance with the ghost of our love
I will dance with the ghost of our long lost love
I will dance with the ghost of our love
I will dance with the ghost of our long lost love
I will dance with the ghost of our love
I will dance with the ghost of our long lost love
