I had been haunted by a ghost

 I had been haunted by a ghost

Too many people between us

She knows what I fear the most

Seeing things as they are.

I had been haunted by a ghost

Not in my home, but in my mind

My heart was just a lonely host

And I fear she wasn't real.

I had been haunted by a ghost

I'm begging her to leave me,

 though we both know that she can stay

Sometimes I'm found, sometimes I'm lost

I won't let her go away.

I am haunted by a ghost

Too many people between us

She knows what I fear the most

And so I take it as it comes.
