sweet ghost of light, when you appear you fall around me, everywhere i see your face as you pass by as fragile as a dragonfly you jab me in the kidneys like a compass or an iron spike but i can't help believing you because i love the things you do sweet ghost of light, i've lived too long i'd die for you inside this song the sweetest death that i can dream like petals flowing down a stream that turn to blood, as they dissolve it's all around you i revolve sweet ghost of light, you'll never fade by nothing else are you betrayed you fill me 'til i'm empty and you empty me like grains of sand i love you more than anyone beneath the moon, beneath the sun Robyn Hitchcock Sweet Ghost Of Light
