|
we were splitting up |
|
you split up instead |
|
you lost your head last night |
|
and your body came to bed |
|
your face came back to haunt me |
|
when your body ran away |
|
i'd put them back together |
|
but together they won't stay |
|
skeletons in the closet |
|
ghosts out in the hall |
|
rattling chains and spirit trains |
|
won't let me sleep at all |
|
no rest for the stupid |
|
people standing on my toes |
|
i gave up things i should have kept |
|
my violin has got no bow |
|
i should have told you proper |
|
laid out everything |
|
but you were pushing separate bedrooms |
|
and pulling all the strings |
|
skeletons in the closet |
|
ghosts out in the hall |
|
rattling chains and spirit trains |
|
won't let me sleep at all |
|
been a long time without you |
|
been a long and lonely lonely time |
|
bitter tears have dried with years |
|
and now my eyes won't cry |
|
my god has beena comfort |
|
and i'm managing to cope |
|
though i'm a swinging single |
|
dangling from your rope |
|
skeletons in the closet |
|
ghosts out in the hall |
|
rattling chains and spirit trains |
|
won't let me sleep at all |
|
skeletons in the closet |
|
ghosts out in the hall |
|
rattling chains and spirit trains |
|
won't let me sleep at all |
