It's 4 a.m., I sashay with myself
Couples all surround me.
So in love, eyes all aglow
Oh, say you found me.
All my steps are memorized
Swaying to a rhythm so nice.
Patterns of my feet tattoo the floor
They're frozen there like ice.
I dance with the ghost of you,
What else can I do?
You seem too far from view
So I dance with the ghost of you.
Defying everything,
I stay on the floor
Advances are effective.
I'm not saying a thing to a soul
To keep my heart protected.
Sirens think I get in their way
Their logic won't compute.
Instead, I'm adding up the hours I spend
With everyone but you.
I dance with the ghost of you,
What else can I do?
You seem too far from view
So I dance with the ghost of you.
They say there's not much difference
Between a good man and a long drag from a cigarette.
Sometimes you feel it, sometimes you don't.
Sometimes you need it, sometimes you don't.
But no one likes a ghost.
I dance with the ghost of you,
What else can I do?
You seem too far from view
So I dance with the ghost of you.
