Ghosts Lyrics by Gotye

0

[Verse 1]
When the room is quiet
And the daylight's almost gone
Seems there's something I should know
Well I ought to leave but
The raining never stops
And I've no particular place to go
No, no

[Chorus]
Just when I think I'm winning
When I've broken every door
The ghost of my life
Go wilder than before
Just when thought I could not be stopped
When my chance came to be king
The ghost of my life
Now wilder than the wind

[Verse 2]
Well I'm feeling nervous
Now I find myself alone
And the simple life's no longer there
Once I was so sure
Now the doubt inside my mind
Comes and goes but it leads me nowhere
No, nowhere

[Chorus]
Just when I think I'm winning
When I've broken every door
The ghost of my life
Go wilder than before
Just when thought I could not be stopped
When my chance came to be king
The ghost of my life
Go wilder than the wind

When I think I'm winning
When I've broken every door
The ghost of my life
Go wilder than before
Just when thought I could not be stopped
When my chance came to be king
The ghost of my life
Now wilder than the wind
