Ghosts

Once I was a very young man, and very young men are none too clever
Sailed across to faraway lands
And far away towns of tin and terror
Ran amok in a strip called love
Lost my mind in streets of neon
Now I'm coming on back
Help me up move right left foot forward
Oh we had a merry old time, but merry old times don't count for nothing
Cocaine, song and women and wine
Memories flood and I make me shudder
Bed in the morning, eight, four, five, couple of days to get my head on

Now I'm coming on back
Help me up move right left foot forward
To go go go go go go go go
(Oooo ooo oooooo oooo)
Untroubled by gho gho gho gho gho gho gho ghosts in heaven
Oooo ooo oooooo oooo

Far below the shiniest stars, shiniest stars won't shine forever
Take your soul and you can go far
If you don't fall from grace or favor
Gold awaits all those who star
You can take now and I'll take never

Now I'm coming on back
Help me up move right left foot forward
To go go go go go go go go
(Oooo ooo oooooo oooo)
Untroubled by gho gho gho gho gho gho gho ghosts in heaven
Oooo ooo oooooo oooo
Go go go go go go go go go
Untroubled by gho gho gho gho gho gho gho ghosts in heaven
Oooo ooo oooooo oooo
Oooo ooo oooooo oooo

Soon I'll be a very old man, and very old men they dream of summers
Spent with falls in faraway clans
While hometown crowds sing hymns of courage
Ran amok in a strip called love
Lost my mind in streets of neon
Now I'm coming on home
Help me up move right left foot forward
