How  would you  know?
 When everything  around you's changing like the weather,
 A big  black storm.
 And  where'd you turn  to?
 Or hide  a ghost, a shadow at the most, would you let  me know?
 Cause  I don't want  to,
 To trouble  your mind with the childish design of how it  all should  go.
 But I  love you  so,
 When it all  comes clear, when the wind is settled, I'll be  here, you know
 Cause you  said ours were the  lighthouse towers
 The sand  upon that place
 Darling I'll  grow weary, happy  still
 With just the memory  of your face
Gracious  goes  the ghost  of you
 And I will never forget  the plans  and the
 Silhouettes you drew here  and
Gracious goes  the ghost  of you
 My dear
 How would you know?
 When everything around you's bruised and battered
 Like the cold night storm.
 And where would you turn to?
 Or hide a ghost, a shadow at the most, would you tell me so?
 Cause I, I adore you so
 When it all comes clear, the wind is settled, I'll be here, you know.
 Cause you said ours were the lighthouse towers
 The sand upon that place
 Darling I'll grow weary, happy still
 With just the memory of your face
 Gracious goes the ghost of you
 And I will never forget the plans and the
 Silhouettes you drew here and
 Gracious goes the ghost of you
 My dear
 Gracious goes the ghost of you
 And I will never forget the plans and the
 Silhouettes you drew here and
 Gracious goes the ghost of you
 My dear

Like the cold night storm.

Cause you said ours were the lighthouse towers
The sand upon that place
Darling I'll grow weary, happy still
With just the memory of your face

Gracious goes the ghost of you
And I will never forget the plans and the
Silhouettes you drew here and
Gracious goes the ghost of you
My dear

Gracious goes the ghost of you
And I will never forget the plans and the
Silhouettes you drew here and
Gracious goes the ghost of you
My dear
