"Musta Been A Ghost" lyrics

If I call you, then I'm crazy, if I call you
If I call you, you ain't gonna answer
If I was ever to just call you
See, my problem is I want you
To know who I am
When all that matters is that I know
Who the hell I am

I picture young Robert Frost
Pen in hand, yelling at the postman
No letter has he received
Even a 'no' would be alright
Even a 'sorry but not today'
A sign of life would bring relief
Even a 'thank you, but no thank you'
'Good bye'
'Take care'
'I already got one'

I thought I heard you laugh once, no?

I guess it must have been a ghost
I don't see no one
Every time I get close
Can't keep you around
Thought I knew you
But it must have been a ghost
'Cause I don't see no one
Shame on my eyes
Thinking you were real

Now today, all them horses
Run a bit faster
So I know if you wanted
You could give me an answer
See, my problem is I want you
To know who I am
When all that matters is that I know
Who the hell I am

I picture young Honest Abe
Twiddling his thumbs for two weeks
No Letter has he received
Are you one of those people
That would rather disappear
Than show up and disagree?
Give us a 'thank you, but no thank you'
'Good bye'
'Take care'
'I already got one'

We cried together once, no?

I guess it must have been a ghost
I don't see no one
Every time I get close
Can't keep you around
Thought I knew you
But it must have been a ghost
'Cause I don't see no one
Shame on my eyes
Thinking you were real
