You never write me anymore not like you used to when I used to know you
And when I called you like before, your face turned redder than I’ve ever seen on any man
So then we tried this thing again. I got to know you through this little window
but then you disappeared, my friend. After a week or two I knew I couldn’t wait on you
Cause you are an apparition, not just a superstition. You are the whisper in the wind.
And I won’t keep a candle burning cause you won’t be returning. I hope you’re paying for your sins.
You’re just a fleeting thought, some fling that I forgot; a parasite that needs a host.
It’s no phenomenon that by the time you’ve moved on, I will already be gone.
Cause I don’t need another ghost (ghost)
I don’t need another ghost (ghost)
I don’t need another ghost, a ghost
Then when I saw you with that guy; some spooky soirée, where all I could think to say was, “Hi”
I’m freaking out, it’s not like you know. Although, my face is pale, and my legs are starting to go.
That’s when the drinks begin to pour, and I can’t tell the living from the dead no more.
But, I know by the light of day just like the moon, you will be gone, that’s why I say
That you are an apparition, not just a superstition. You are the whisper in the wind.
And I won’t keep a candle burning cause you won’t be returning. I hope you’re paying for your sins.
You’re just a fleeting thought, some fling that I forgot; a parasite that needs a host.
It’s no phenomenon that by the time you’ve moved on, I will already be gone.
Cause I don’t need another ghost (ghost)
I don’t need another ghost (ghost)
I don’t need another ghost, a ghost.
Cause I don’t need another ghost (ghost)
I don’t need another ghost (ghost)
I don’t need another ghost, a ghost.
You could try to apologize. I could forgive you for all the lies. This could happen a million times.
I could try to be your friend. You’d escape like Houdini again. Can this horror show come to an end?
Cause you are an apparition, not just a superstition. I hope you’re paying for your sins...
Cause I don’t need another ghost.
Show me how to disappear cause you, my dear have practiced that the most.
You’re just a fleeting thought, some fling that I forgot; a parasite that needs a host.
And I don’t need another ghost
I don’t need another ghost
Oh, I don’t need another ghost
Another ghost. 👻
