• I thought I saw a ghost
    But it wasn’t really there
    I never actually saw it
    But I could feel it in the air

    Reaching back for childhood dreams
    I wanted to believe
    This fascination did exist
    But I think I was deceived

    I thought I heard a voice
    But now it seems so far away
    Whispered promises in the dark
    Fade like fog before the day

    How callow it was of me
    To dwell in this childish fantasy
    Painting pictures in my mind
    Of an existence I’d never find

    I thought I saw a ghost
    But it was all inside my head
    A hollow life I imagined
    A memory, long lost and dead
