Supergrass Lyrics

"Ghost Of A Friend" lyrics


Ghost of a friend came down to me
Singing, "Don't go back to Misery"
She spread out her wings and said, "Listen to me
This ain't no place for you to be"
Oh my darling, you can set me free

So I packed up my sorrows and I followed her down
To the whistling road heading out of town
The grass is greener off the beaten track
"So come with me and we won't look back"
Oh my darling, I could only try

Yeah, the clowns have taken the town
Yeah, the fools here are running me down
Well, I don't need them around
They got nothin' on you
They got nothin' on you, no

And the lady sings

Now the ghost of a friend is leaving me
For another dark place of misery
But the fire's burning and the winds, they've changed
I know I'll see my friend again
Oh my darling, you have made me see

And it's always the circus in town
With the vultures and the peacocks and hounds
Well I don't need that around
They've got nothin' on you
They've got nothin' on you, no

And the lady sings

You see, there's always a circus in town
With the vultures and the peacocks and hounds
Well I don't need that around
They've got nothin' on you
They've got nothin' on you, no

And the lady sings

And there she goes
