"I Don't Want You As A Ghost" lyrics

"I Don't Want You As A Ghost"

Well I want you as you are
Not some collapsing star
I'll wait I'll wait for good
What else can I do

I don't want you as a ghost
I don't want you as a fading light
I don't want to be the weight you carry
I just want to be the man you come home to every night

Well I want you as you are
Don't be someone you're not
The kids that we once were
They wouldn't know us now

I don't want you as a ghost
I don't want you as a fading light
I don't want to be the weight you carry
I just want to be the man you come home to every night

I don't want you as a ghost
I don't want you as a fading light
I don't want to be the weight you carry
I just want to be the man you come home to
I just want to be the man you come home to every night
