On the outside he was shining
On the inside he was broke
He did his best to hide it
You’d never even know
We were just becoming friends
When he stepped off the bus
He had a ghost inside him
Invisible to us
If you feel like dancing
go on with yourself
If you feel like dancing
Falling down a flight of stairs
To make you smile
He’d get up and laugh it off
But he’d know the lie
Once he said, “I hurt my self”
But that was never hurt
He had a ghost inside him
Stealing every word
If you feel like dancing
go on with yourself
If you feel like dancing
He was gone for a couple of days
and then he reappeared
With a dead set look on his face
Cigarettes behind his ears
We could tell that he was getting bad
But nobody said a thing
He had a ghost inside him
That he could not contain
If you feel like dancing
go on with yourself
If you feel like dancing
Standing in an orchard
While the choir sings
To find out why he’d done it
You’d need a pair of wings
And even though it taught him
Just how much he was loved
He had a ghost inside him
That he had to give up
If you feel like dancing
go on with yourself
If you feel like dancing
He wouldn’t want anything else
If you feel like dancing
Go on with yourself
If you feel like dancing
Go on with yourself
If you feel like dancing
Go on with yourself
If you feel like dancing
He wouldn’t want anything else
