Ghost of His Smile

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:

He don't get out much

These days

But I wouldn't call him

LazyHe sees the dawn sneak

Into the room

And knows the dogs

Will be up soonAnd we thought that he was doing alright

As the sun chased down another nightAnd days careen

Like the waters

Of a river rushing

To the seaHere she comes again

Down the staircase

She never passes

Without saying helloAnd we thought that he was doing alright

And she says helloI can't forget the ghost

I can't forget the ghost

I can't forget the ghost

Of his smileAnd dogs will wag their tails

And birds will sing

Hell, it's a hard world

For little thingsAnd we thought that he was doing alrightI can't forget the ghost

I can't forget the ghost

I can't forget the ghost

Of his smile
