Ghosts Lyrics by Ross Carter

2019

[Verse 1]
I’m not going to wait up
So I’ll see you later
If you extend an invitation
Maybe I could take it
I’m not one to make arrangements
We’ll have to see about a raincheck
When I’m cold it gets you raining
These are just the basics

[Chorus]
We fall short every time we get close
But I still feel you the most
Let’s not turn into ghosts
Baby we fall short every time we get close
But I still feel you the most
Let’s not turn into ghosts

[Verse 2]
First time we were sure we closed all the doors
But i think everybody knows
Staring at the ceiling together
That’s the closest that we’ll get to heaven
Life’s too short to keep pretending that it isn’t
One chance could make all the difference
But you’re too busy thinking ‘bout an image
Not like you to have unfinished business

[Chorus]
We fall short every time we get close
But I still feel you the most
Let’s not turn into ghosts
Baby we fall short every time we get close
But I still feel you the most
Let’s not turn into ghosts


[Verse 3 / Rap]
You’re saying way too much, not backing it up
Eyes have all the talk, bracelet with the charm
Diamonds all flush, but now you’re under pressure
And I don’t think you’d measure up if I brought out the tester
You’re body’s electric and you ride just like a tesla
But we’re not doing all of this to add to a collection
We’re looking for the one that’ll make us press pause
Maybe that’s why this has taken so long
I put on Cam’ron, both in the back seat
No more flat parties, come home with me
Got a new E-class, you just bought it
To drive to the job that you never actually wanted
But I never had the answers to start with
And nights like these won’t solve it all for you (ooh)

[Chorus]
We fall short every time we get close
But I still feel you the most
Let’s not turn into ghosts
Baby we fall short every time we get close
But I still feel you the most
Let’s not turn into ghosts


[Outro]
First time we were sure we closed all the doors
But i think everybody knows
Staring at the ceiling together
That’s the closest that we’ll get to heaven
