I stumbled in and I fell straight asleep in the chair Swear I did Woke with a start and I thought I saw you floating by Swear I did
The fixtures and furniture's the same As the second you walked out the door But here in my head you put a ghost train And I can't go 'round any more
And I hear the passengers scream I'm living in a haunted heart And I tell myself it's all a bad dream I'm living in a haunted heart
Too proud to beg you to come back One more drink, the fairground fades to black Every night
Days last for years 'til the dark, like a bear, Puts his claws around my brain Smack! bang on time, with your laugh, you walk in Through the walls around my brain
The curtains and carpets are the same As the day you dissolved in thin air Now here I go queueing for the horror ride Knowing I don't have the fare
And I hear the passengers scream I'm living in a haunted heart And I tell myself it's all a bad dream I'm living in a haunted heart
Too proud to beg you to come back As the ghost train rattles 'round it's track, Every night
I can't exorcise you or cause you to reappear But if you want to know what nothing looks like Well just peel back my chest and take a look inside here
The fixtures and furniture's the same As the second you walked out the door But here in my head you put a ghost train And I can't go 'round any more
And I hear the passengers scream I'm living in a haunted heart And you're shaking me apart at the seams I'm living in a haunted heart My reality is pushed past extremes I'm living in a haunted heart And I tell myself it's just a bad dream I'm living in a haunted heart
Too proud to beg you to come back One more drink, the fairground fades to black.
