[Verse 1]

Ghost, ghost I know you live within me

Feel as you fly

In thunderclouds above the city

Into one that I

Loved with all that was left within me

Until we tore in two

Now wings and rings and there's so many

B A E

Waiting here for you

[Chorus]

And she was born in a bottle rocket, 1929

With wings that ring around a socket

Right between her spine

All drenched in milk and holy water

Pouring from the sky

I know that she will live for ever

She won't ever die

B E

She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid

To watch the morning paper blow

Into a hole where no one can escape

[Verse 2]

And one day in New York City baby

A girl fell from the sky

From the top of a burning apartment building

Fourteen stories high

And when her spirit left her body

How it split the sun

I know that she will live for ever

All goes on and on and on and

[Chorus]

B E

She goes and now she knows she'll never be afraid

To watch the morning paper blow

Into a hole where no one can escape
