Sixteen Days Lyrics - Whiskeytown

Got sixteen days 

One for every time I've gone away 

One for every time I should have stayed 

Should have wore my wedding ring 

Got sixteen days 

Fifteen of those are nights 

Can't sleep when the bed sheet fights 

It's way back to your side 

Well, the ghost has got me runnin' 

Well, the ghost has got me runnin' 

Away from you, away from you, away 

Well, the ghost has got me runnin' 

Well, the ghost has got me runnin' 

Away from you, away from you, away 

Got sixteen days 

Got a bottle and a rosary 

God, I wish that you were close to me 

I guess I owe you an apology 

Got sixteen days 

Fifteen of those are nights 

Can't sleep when the bed sheet fights 

It's way back to your side 

Well, the ghost has got me runnin' 

Well, the ghost has got me runnin' 

Away from you, away from you, away 

Well, the ghost has got me runnin' 

Well, the ghost has got me runnin' 

Away from you, away from you, away 

Old tin cups, little paper dolls 

All wrapped up in ribbons bows and hearts 

Old tin cups and little paper dolls 

All wrapped up in the ribbons of your heart 

I got sixteen days 

Sixteen days 

I got sixteen days 

It's like a fool I am
