Ella Henderson – Ghost – Lyrics

Ghost by Ella Henderson

I keep going to the river to pray

Cos I need, something that can wash all the pain

And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away

But your ghost, the ghost of you will kiss me awake

My friends had you figured out

Yeah they saw what's inside of you

Trying to hide in another you

But your evil is coming through

These eyes sitting on the wall

They watch every move I make

Bright light living in the shade

Your cold heart makes your spirit shake

I had to go through hell to prove I'm not insane

Had to meet the devil just to know his name

And that's where my love was burning

Yeah it's still burning

I keep going to the river to pray

Cos I need, something that can wash all the pain

And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away

But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake(x2)

Each time that I think you go

I turn around and you're creeping in

And I let you under my skin

Cos I love living innocent

Boy you never told me

True love was going to hurt

True pain that I don't deserve

Truth is that I never learn

I keep going to the river to pray

Cos I need, something that can wash all the pain

And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away

But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake(x2)

Give up the ghost, Give up the ghost, Give up the ghost, Stop the haunting baby

Give up the ghost, Give up the ghost, Give up the ghost, No more haunting baby

I keep going to the river

I keep going to the river to pray

Cos I need, something that can wash all the pain

And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away

But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake(x2)
