"Ghost" lyrics

"Ghost"

I'm stumblin' around the park just to think
I'm always startled when the ghost of things appear unwanted
The swans are gliding while the wind whips and stings
The sapphire in my signet ring
I know that's it's been a while since
Came over, let you drape your arm 'round my bad shoulder
When I trust you I'll crush my composure
Wanna tell you the truth, melt right into you

Melt right into you
Let you be the glue
Melt right into you, you

Between the sheets of rhododendron and sky
I cast my mind across the day you said you'd always be there
I pushed a curl of hair away from your eye
And said "It's sweet of you to lie"
I know that's it's been a while since
Came over
It's hard to be unguarded
I know I come across cold
Dropping out like a stone
When I'm crumblin', but I owe you the truth
Wanna I melt right into you

Melt right into you
Let you be my glue
Melt right into you, you

I'm so easily wounded
Glasses of pineapple juice out on the Heath
My head in your lap
You offer me space, wild bees and sweat
I'm scared if I tell you, you'll think of me as weak
I don't wanna be that friend that's always in pain
So I bottle it up, it hurts when I do it
We stare at the sun

Wanna let you in, wanna let you help me
Wanna let you in, wanna have transparency
Wanna let you in, wanna tell you everythin', everythin'

Melt right into you
Let you be that glue
Melt right into you, you
Let you be my glue
Melt right into you
Let you be my glue
Melt right into you, you
