Ghost In the Attic Lyrics by Dave Nachmanoff

A Certain Distance

0

A gentle creaking on the stairs and I turn around
She's coming down now, I know she's coming down
A slight disturbance in the air and a tiny sound
She's coming down now, I know she's coming down
CHORUS:
I'm not afraid, it's (of) the ghost in my attic
And I'm not afraid, but I get wistful sometimes
She's all I've got, this ghost in my attic
I hear the echo of her voice each time the clock chimes
50 years we shared this house in love and life
No she's not gone, not really gone now
Maybe she couldn't stand to leave me here alone
Maybe it's me who just can't stand to let her go
(CHORUS)
And the kids say it's just memories
The doctor says it's grief
But I've seen her in the mirror in the hall
And it doesn't matter much that nobody else believes
She's there enough for me
The lamp flickers every night beside my bed
I hear my name, she says “I love you”
I pull the quilt she made up tight, lay down my head
She says goodnight, and I know she's with me
(CHORUS)
