My Ghost

​inside your kitchen i saw my ghost
trying to get me wishing i was making toast
she took out my mug poured me a drink
pointed at my rings still by the sink
i asked her why it's here she dwells
but she really could not say
i said goodbye, i wished her well
and I went willing on my way
 
inside your parlor i saw my spirit
playing your guitar, she wanted me to hear it
she asked me to sit on chairs i own
she played my records on the gramophone
i asked her why it's here she dwells
she said well someone had to stay
i said goodbye, i wished her well
and i went willing on my way
 
and where you sleep my phantasm soul
was praying to keep you safe and whole
the room is small but it's changed the most
she don't need you here, i told my ghost
i asked her when she planned to go
she said when someone sets me free
i said my friend, go get your coat
you are coming home with me
