Текст песни Giving Up The Ghost - Marc Cohn

Deep in the night she quietly creeps
Sometimes she moans, sometimes she weeps
When the wind starts a howlin′ out of control
She? s trouble in mind, she? s nothin' but soul

Now don? t feel afraid there? s nothin′ to fear
It? s just strange visitations year after year
She gave me somethin' I needed but now the feeling is gone
And it? s high time I told her she? s gonna have to move on

From the eerie lake to the hills that shake
I? ve been haunted on every coast
I might miss her I know but I? m letting it go
I? m givin' up the ghost, givin′ up the ghost

Last night she came in at the usual time
Twelve is the number that the church bells did chime
But the wind didn? t blow, there was barely a breeze
Just a light shinin′ over the sycamore trees

From the eerie lake to the hills that shake
I? ve been haunted on every coast
I might miss her in know but I? m letting it go
I? m givin' up the ghost, givin′ up the ghost

Now feelin' much better but I? m still on the brink
I just got a letter in vanishing ink
