Ghost of Books Lyrics by Avey Tare

Down There

2010

[Intro]
Keeping myself in my mind
Keeping myself in my mind
Keeping myself in my mind
Keeping myself in my mind
[Verse 1]
I fell in love with a (Ghost and)
I'm gonna keep it (A scary flight)
Keeping myself in my mind
Fell in love with a (Ghost out)
In love with the past but I (Said that love)
Keeping myself in my mind
I fell in love with a (Ghost out)
Thinking a lot about (Changing light)
Fell in love with a (Ghost out)
Trying to learn all the (Sadness love)
[Chorus]
I went away to a ghost land
And it felt like a perfect dream
I grabbed a hold of two ghost hands
And a voice said, "I'll always be"
I went away to a ghost land
And it felt like a perfect dream
I grabbed a hold of two ghost hands
And a voice said, "I'll always be"
I went away to a ghost land
And it felt like a perfect dream
I grabbed a hold of two ghost hands
And a voice said, "I'll always be"
[Verse 2]
You wanna take it, a good friend
Where it could bake in a dollar's light
Then she would hear me at my end
Where we could ever be billion night
Said they could mate in the moonbeams
And there could never be poison, I
Wanted to cherish my ghost girl
Sweetness that carried me up so high
[Bridge]
I ran to tell all my dear friends
Of the new love I did find
But when I return to my homeland
I was confused by the changing tide
How can I live with the ghost gal
With the face like I wanna die
And I wasn't sure of my ghost plans
From a distance I heard her cry:
[Interlude]
I'm so tired of disappearing
You're so beautiful, you can't hear me
Want to hold you, kiss you, dearly
Climb through the void and eternally cheer me
I'm so tired of disappearing
You're so beautiful, you can't hear me
Want to hold you, kiss you, dearly
Climb through the void and eternally cheer me
I'm so tired of disappearing
You're so beautiful, you can't hear me
Want to hold you, kiss you, dearly
Climb through the void and eternally cheer me
[Outro]
So I ran away with my ghost gal
So I ran away with my ghost gal
So I ran away with my ghost gal
So I ran away with my ghost gal
So I ran away with my ghost gal
So I ran away with my ghost gal
So I ran away with my ghost gal
So I ran away with my ghost gal
So I ran away with my ghost gal
So I ran away with my ghost gal
So I ran away with my ghost gal
