Ghosts

Don't know what I was looking for
But I seem to find it all in you
Forget the past, we'll close that door
Whatever you've been through

We said there'd be no secrets
No skeletons under the bed
No little sudden surprises
From the colourful lives that we led
You say you love me
You kiss me goodnight
I know that everything should be all right

But the ghosts of your former lovers
Still haunt me in my sleep
I've been counting them
Instead of counting sheep
Don't know why, but it seems
That the ghosts of your former lovers
Keep coming back to me
I don't understand, but it feels like jealousy
If it's only a dream

Then in the cold daylight
You'll be lying there for me
Maybe then, they'll go away
But they'll be back eventually

You always say that the others
Were just water under the bridge
But there were more men
Stuck on you, darling
Than magnets to the fridge
You say you love me
And you kiss me goodnight
I know that everything should be all right

But the ghosts of your former lovers
Still haunt me now and then
And I hate to think of you with one of them
Don't know why, but it seems
That the ghosts of your former lovers
Will never let me be
Was there something you gave them
You don't give me?
But it's only a dream

There's not a single detail
That I don't know about
But you are still like a drug
That I could never live without
You say you love me
And you kiss me goodnight
And for a little while, I'll be all right

Until the ghosts of your former lovers
Start coming back to me
I don't understand, but it feels like jealousy
Don't know why, but it seems
That the ghosts of your former lovers
Will never let me be
Was there something you gave them
You don't give me?
And I don't wanna dream
About the ghosts of your former lovers
The ghosts of your former lovers
The ghosts of your former lovers
