I thought I saw a ghost

I thought I saw a ghost today

But it was only you

I thought I saw a ghost today

More frightening, t’was only you

I turned around and startled

Felt my blood start running cold

A long lost memory, not lost long enough

That still made my heart race,

As in days of old

Then like a deer in the headlights

I examined your face

But I found nothing there

Any emotion seemed gone without a trace

And like one seeing the ghost

Of a departed one dear,

I wanted to weep

But I could not shed the tears

I’d rather have seen a ghost today

But instead I saw you

But if you’d been a ghost

Perhaps then I’d make it through

But no, it wasn’t a ghost

It was only you.
