If We Were Ghosts Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If we were ghosts
You could see inside of me, right into my soul
To see what makes me up or focus on the holes
I'd be the world around the sun
Hopelessly spinning 'round you, yeah
Turning every leaf and stone
But that's not the way it goes
[Chorus]
I have to wait 'til I get to the other side
Just to see you, just to see you
I have to wait 'til I get to the other side
'Cause I never, never got to say goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
[Verse 2]
If we were ghosts
Floating high above the world, little would they know
That to end is to begin least that's what I hope
That for a moment I could be
Something a bit more complete, yeah
But we never keep what makes us whole
And that's just the way it goes
[Chorus]
I have to wait 'til I get to the other side
Just to see you, just to see you
I have to wait 'til I get to the other side
'Cause I never, never got to say goodbye
[Bridge]
And I lament with every breath I take
The gentle sadness flows through everything
The gentle sadness flows through everything
[Chorus]
I have to wait 'til I get to the other side
Just to see you, just to see you
I have to wait 'til I get to the other side
'Cause I never, never got to say goodbye
[Outro]
(I never said) Goodbye
(I never said) Goodbye
(I never said) Goodbye
(I never said) Goodbye
