 x2
Ghost  lay in a ditch on thursday  where I was meant to be
I  almost missed my death its so good now  hes decked in flowers for me
I  hope she doesnt like me or i'll soon  be standing more than likely
 where he  once stood and thats no good
Ahaa
We  pretend not to look at another but if he  could see over her shoulder
He  got me a time he got me that time never a time again
I  look at the hair on her head thats not real now im left
 with a dead and a naked ordeal when all  i want is down at the shore
 sitting in my car
And  bitter sometimes but the taste is sweet your friends  olny like
 themselves in photographs i dont like  them i dont like  you
Ahaa  We pretend  not to look  at each other
I  stand on my feet  when i wanna
We  pretend not to look  but for change  and for good  I cry
 x4
But  when the stars look right above me and in the street  lights i cant see
 I walk  on down to make a stand where he  once stood
Now  they lie there breast to breast and toe  to toe
All  I want is down at the shore sitting in my  car
We  ended its all over she'll marry  me but i'll hold her
She'll  shovel the dirt into my face I dont care i love her
