The Haunted Man

I could'ntsleep last night

Cause I tried to forget you

In the suffocated air

I resolved to let you go

Twisted all our dreams

'Til you became the nightmare

Close it off inside

Or else the hurt is gonna rise...

I could'ntsleep last night

Cause I tried to forget you

Heard the old man and the sea

Singing low

"And the silver fish" she cried,

"Never forget, had gone and died"

And the babes that clung to her

Had all let go

[Male choir:]

My dear she touched my skin

And oh did the skin

Set a burning

My dear she touched my skin

Where once we kissed and ran

That memory scorched the man

I have to tell you dear

(Ask me to hold you I...)

Death has become my breathing

(Far away gone and I...)

My dear she touched my skin

(Ask me to tell you I...)

And oh she did, she touched my skin

(Holding the ghost of a man I...)

Where once we kissed and ran

(Ask me to tell you I...)

This madness haunted the man

(Holding the ghost of a man...)

Still I'm holding out my hand

Standing by my haunted man

Yes, your ghosts have go me too

But it's me and you

I can't run...

Still I'm holding out my hand

Standing by my haunted man

Yes, your ghosts have go me too

But it's me and you

I can't run...
