The Ghost of the Mountain Songtext
The foot crunched snow
And there′s a lifetime in the space between your steps
You weren't to know
I was ending as you stole out in the white
Your final kiss
Is a ghost upon my lips, upon my eyes
A pale blue sky
Hangs like a sad remainder of the sum of us
If I′m ready for the next world
Then I'm ready for the deepest earth
If there's a magic in the after
It′ll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
Ooh, it′ll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
Ooh, it'll never beat the sight of you
I′m not a man
I'm just a shadow, just a fragment, just a ghost
The best of me
It was never quite the best that you deserved
You are the start
But you′re the sweetest bitter end I could of hoped for
Don't look for me
Just keep your blue eyes on the road away from here
If I′m ready for the next world
Then I'm ready for the deepest earth
If there's a magic in the after
It′ll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
Ooh, it′ll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
Ooh, it'll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
It′ll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
It'll never beat the sight of you
I′m not a man
I'm just a shadow, just a fragment, just a ghost
And there′s a lifetime in the space between your steps
You weren't to know
I was ending as you stole out in the white
Your final kiss
Is a ghost upon my lips, upon my eyes
A pale blue sky
Hangs like a sad remainder of the sum of us
If I′m ready for the next world
Then I'm ready for the deepest earth
If there's a magic in the after
It′ll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
Ooh, it′ll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
Ooh, it'll never beat the sight of you
I′m not a man
I'm just a shadow, just a fragment, just a ghost
The best of me
It was never quite the best that you deserved
You are the start
But you′re the sweetest bitter end I could of hoped for
Don't look for me
Just keep your blue eyes on the road away from here
If I′m ready for the next world
Then I'm ready for the deepest earth
If there's a magic in the after
It′ll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
Ooh, it′ll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
Ooh, it'll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
It′ll never beat the sight of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh)
It'll never beat the sight of you
I′m not a man
I'm just a shadow, just a fragment, just a ghost
