Thea Gilmore
The Ghost of Love
If I weren’t agnostic I would pray right now
If I weren’t a crow I’d be a dove
If I wasn’t reckless I would settle down
But baby I am just the ghost of love

If I wasn’t broken I’d be strong right now
If I weren’t the push I’d be the shove
If I wasn’t cold I’d be the sweat upon your brow
But baby I am just the ghost of love

Been trying to teach myself all these years
The way the better hearts can dance
But all those rings and strings and souvenirs
Darling I just didn’t stand a chance

If I weren’t the brеad I’d be the body now
If I werеn’t the wine I’d be the blood
If I weren’t the ocean I would run aground
But baby I am just the ghost of love

Been trying to teach myself all these years
The way the better hearts can dance
But all those rings and strings and souvenirs
Darling I just didn’t stand a chance

If I weren't the pain I’d be the pleasure now
If I didn’t fall so short I’d be enough
You’re the whole bottle
I’m the measure now
And baby I am just the ghost of love
