Lyrics Seth Lakeman

Seth Lakeman

I'll Haunt You

A year at sea since your letter came

To shatter all our plans

You set me free, changed your name

I stretch out both these hands

On board ship the rumours ride

No-one meets my eye

I’ve thrown your ring out on the tide

I pray my curses fly

To haunt you

Haunt your bed

Tap the windows you’ll wake in dread

Pray that you’d loved me instead

I’ll haunt you, I’ll haunt your bed

I’ve walked alone upon this deck

A thousand times or more

Half a year from my return

These cries fly back to shore

You promised me your love was strong

You said that you’d be true

Go tell yourself now I’m long gone

‘Cause here’s what I will do

I’ll haunt you

Haunt your bed

Tap the windows you’ll wake in dread

Pray that you’d love me instead

I’ll haunt you, I’ll haunt your bed

I’ll haunt you

Sleep in fear

Whisper secrets in your ear

A world away but I’ll be near

I’ll haunt you

Fear me

Whenever you’re sleeping

I will be watching over you
