lyrics

I see you standing in the pale moonlight
You're sending shivers up my spine
No I can't
I can't see
I can't see your eyes now whoo ooh ohh

Pull the covers up above my head
So cold even in my nice warm bed
This must be
This must be
What it feels like to be dead

What
What do you
Want me to do?
You just stare into my bedroom

No
This isn't true
But there you sway
There in my doorway

Hey mister ghost where do you go when it's day outside

Now
It has been years
Since I saw you
Stare into my bedroom

I
Thought you weren't real
But my brothers say
They saw you in the doorway

Though we never said a word for years until we were grown
We all saw your silhouette the same at the end of the hall
I can feel the chills return when I consider the thought
That my eyes did not deceive,

Hey mister ghost where do you go when it's day outside
