[Intro]
Give up the ghost, give up the ghost
Give up the ghost, give up the ghost

[Verse 1]
I know you love me, you say it every day
And you let me inside, but not all the way
'Cause someone’s watching and it's something I can't shake
You never said her name out loud to me
But I can feel it with you when you’re asleep
Is she a nightmare or the sweetest of sweet dreams?
I need to know, I need to know

[Chorus]
'Cause I know I could make you happy
Baby, if you only let me
But two of us is one too many
Open the door and set her free
Give up the ghost, hold on to me

[Verse 2]
You wanna be in my future, I see it in your eyes
But the past still haunt you, even after all this time
She's driving you crazy and it's making me lose my mind
Give up the ghost, give up the ghost

[Chorus]
'Cause I know I could make you happy
Baby, if you only let me
But two of us is one too many
Open the door and set her free
Give up the ghost, hold on to me

[Post-Chorus]
Give up the ghost, give up the ghost
Give up the ghost, give up the ghost

[Bridge]
I'm here waiting, arms wide open
Leave the shadows, let the light in

[Chorus]
'Cause I know I could make you happy
Baby, if you only let me
But two of us is one too many
Open the door and set her free
Give up the ghost, hold on to me
Open the door and set her free
Give up the ghost, hold on to me
