Ghost of yesterday
Stalking ’round my room
All night long you stay
Walk around in profound gloom
When the darkness falls
When I’ve gone to bed
Weirdly come your calls
Mournfully scornfully dead

Folly of a love I strangled
Pulsing heart I thought was gone
Gives no peace
Will not cease
Prowling ’round till dawn

Ghost of yesterday
Every night you’re here
Whispering away
Might have been, might have been oh my dear
Foolish heart must pay
Ghost of yesterday

Ghost of yesterday
Every night you’re here
Whispering away
Might have been, might have been oh my dear
Foolish heart must pay
Ghost of yesterday

Ghost of yesterday
