I must say, I must say,
                       G
That I loved you the most.
And when you went away,
                    C
I remembered your ghost.
I keep, I keep,
                 G
It right in my heart.
Cause everybody knows,
                       C
That ghosts like the dark.


    E                   Am
The TV is on, and the fan swings around,
      E                            Am
The insects are singing, 'cause the sun's going down.
      E                         Am
The heat is like love, and the breeze is like kisses,
   D                      G
I boil two eggs and it's him that I'm missing.

  C
I think of you, think of you,
                G      
And I feel so alive.
Like berries, like a market,
Like a buzzing beehive.
I won't show it, I won't show it,
'Cause a fool I will seem.
So I'll sit on my hands,
And swim in my dreams.

C     G

   E                            Am
I pour another glass, and I wait for the rain,
      E                         Am
I drink up the milk and start counting again.
      E                           Am
Each day is closer to the humming monsoon,
    D                       G
It surely returns like the flowers that bloom.


 C
In a way, in a way,
                     G                        {continue}
In an old-fashioned way,
I'd rather die waiting,
Than forget his name.
When he sings, when he sings,
On the afternoon porch.
The song like shelter
And dark like a torch

C    G

La la la, la la la,
La la la la la la....
