LYRICS
He don’t get out much these days
But I wouldn’t call him lazy
He sees the dawn sneak into the room
He knows the dogs will be up soon
And we thought that he was doing alright
As the sun chased down another night
And days careen like the waters
Of a river rushing to the sea
Here she comes again down the staircase
She never passes without saying hello
And we thought that he was doing alright
As she says hello
I can’t forget the ghost
I can’t forget the ghost
I can’t forget the ghost
Of his smile
Dogs will wag their tails and birds will sing
Hell it’s a hard world for little things
And we thought that he was doing alright
I can’t forget the ghost
I can’t forget the ghost
I can’t forget the ghost
Of his smile
