Gary Jules - Ghosts lyrics

Running along the rocks of the river And the water's as cold as the snow The man is chasing behind me And I can't afford to falter or slow I find solace in what we believe Or the hush of a cool gentle rain But there's something we love in the mystery Of a man in the midst of a change She laughed and said I was going nowhere 'Cause it's nowhere that she's ever been When I get to that place she'll remember my face And say "Hey man, I knew him when he was younger" But she never loved me at all She laughed when I was in pain 'Cause there's something that we are all frightened of In the man in the midst of a change Out on the roof to inquire of the sky The existence of ghosts in my life Who's to blame you or I? No one would answer me They just stared with the weight of the world I pretend not to feel The windmill is poised for the battle But the fool understands not the game He believes in his mission, predestined position Amazing the grace of her name Oh he loves her now as he loved her then Rocinante remembers the days When I whistled and sat waiting patiently With the man in the midst of a change
