Ghosts Lyrics - Greetings From The Side - Gary Jules

Running along the rocks of the river 

And the water's as cold as the snow 

The man is chasing behind me 

And I can't afford to falter or slow 

I find solace in what we believe 

Or the hush of a cool gentle rain 

But there's something we love in the mystery 

Of a man in the midst of a change 

She laughed and said I was going nowhere 

'Cause it's nowhere that she's ever been 

When I get to that place she'll remember my face 

And say "Hey man, I knew him when he was younger" 

But she never loved me at al 

She laughed when I was in pain 

'Cause there's something that we are all frightened of 

In the man in the midst of a change 

Out on the roof to inquire of the sky 

The existence of ghosts in my life 

Who's to blame you or I? 

No one would answer me 

They just stared with the weight of the world I pretend not to feel 

The windmill is poised for the battle 

But the fool understands not the game 

He believes in his mission, predestined position 

Amazing the grace of her name 

Oh he loves her now as he loved her then 

Rocinante rememebers the days 

When I whistled and sat waiting patiently 

With the man in the midst of a change 

Running along the rocks of the river 

With the freedom to step where I choose 

Though I can't stop to rest I like traveling best 

And besides, I've got nothing to lose from it 

I find solace in all the extremes 

In pleasure as well as in pain 

I just wish he would let me explain to you 

The man in the midst of a change
