Ghosts

I called upon the heavens To bring him back to me He was my religion Oh lord, won’t you cut me a deal It’s a fearful matter To love what death can touch So long since I’ve seen his eyes Oh lord, It hurts so much How long before you come back To lay my tears to rest How long before you’re rising From the dead Hollow loom these empty halls I’m haunted by your ghost A cruel game to talk to the dead But what hurts me the most It’s been so long He never came back He took my heart to his early grave How long before he’s rising From the dead How long before you come back To lay my tears to rest How long before you come back How long? Don’t leave me, no! How long before you come back To lay my tears to rest How long before you’re rising From the dead I need absolution, a divine solution
