Ghosts Lyrics by Ryan McMullan

A Winter’s Coat

2017

[Verse 1]
Mary, come closer, is that you I see?
Why are you standing in the rain?
You look like you've had a few more than you'd care to admit
Honey, I'm in the same state as you

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Are you really there with your lipstick smeared and your hair wild in the wind?
Or is this one of those nights when I'm seeing things again?

[Chorus]
I'm reeling in the years
Do you remember how we were?
When I couldn't get enough of you
You couldn't get enough of me
We knew it should've been forever
And Mary, we came pretty close
Now we are, we are, we are ghosts

[Verse 2]
Mary, come closer, is there something wrong?
Or is there someone that you need me to call?
'Cause you know I'd do anything for you
If you would just cross the street and ask me to

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Are you really there or is just the whiskey making a fool of me?
Mary, give me a sign, am I losing my mind like I ought to be?

[Chorus]
I'm reeling in the years
Do you remember how we were?
When I couldn't get enough of you
You couldn't get enough of me
We knew it should've been forever
And Mary, we came pretty close
Now we are, we are, we are

[Bridge]
Ghosts of a faded light
Ghosts of a brighter day
Oh Mary, we were so alive
How did we end up this way?

[Chorus]
I'm reeling in the years
Do you remember how we were?
When I couldn't get enough of you
You couldn't get enough of me
We knew it should've been forever
And Mary, we came pretty close
Now we are, we are, we are
Oh we are, we are, we are, we are
We are, we are, we are, we are, we are ghosts
