The 5th of 11 tracks from Twin Shadow’s debut album Forget..
In this track, George sings about a past love. He hasn’t quite gotten over the relationship and feels as though the ghosts of the past are “at his heels”.
I'm in the belly of the canyon
I can't come up with any reason
Why a ghost is following me
Why a ghost is following me
I got some feed for the longing
I got the pillow for the bad dreams
The apparition dancing with me
Stepping down all over my feet
There is no key to my gate
But you can still come around
Lean your ladder against my window
And I'll come down, I'll come down
Sometimes I don't know what I am seeing
Who's keeping track of all that's breathing?
Theres a world thats waiting for me
Theres a world thats waiting for me
I'm in the belly of the canyon
I can't come up with any reasons
Why a ghost is following me
Why a ghost is following me
There is no key to my gate
But you can still come around
Lean your ladder against my window
And I'll come down, I'll come down
There is no key to my gate
But you can still come around
Lean your ladder against my window
And I'll come down, I'll come down
