"Your Ghost" lyrics - TORI AMOS

TORI AMOS
"Your Ghost"

You've left your ghost
Until tomorrow
And then he must be sent
To a strange address
In the Mediterranean
I've met your ghost
He has proposed
I've met your ghost
Yes, he's proposed
He needs some time alone
Then he'll stay with me
Then he'll visit your seven seas
Please leave me your ghost
I will keep him from harm
Although I've learned that
You were wounded
My forest of glass
Caused enough damage
As has your teal satin crashing
My ambers and my blues
Could have another use
Your ghost has shown me
Our primroses
Could survive the frost
If a gentle rivulet of flame
Is sustained tenderly
He'll play a Beatles tune
Me, more a Bach fugue
Is this such a great divide
Between your world and mine?
They both can purify
And heal what was cut and bruised
Please leave me your ghost
I will keep him from harm
I understand that you've been wounded
My ambers and my blues
Could have another use
Please leave me your ghost
Just leave me
Your ghost
I will keep him warm
I will keep him warm
