lyrics

I spotted a ghost
I spotted a ghost
She was looking at me real close
She said "I think I used to look
An awful lot like you
Searching for heaven
In the corners of hell
I was caught up in the lust
Of the rush of a kiss and tell
I never thought I'd ever
Look the way I do

Oh, you say that you'll come around again
Oh you say that, you say that...
Both you hands and all their sins
And all you say is, you say is,
'My friends I'll come to make amends!'"

I spotted a child
I spotted a child
He was walking a mile in my shoes
I said "I used to look
An awful lot like you
In search of healing
I became diseased
I was worshiping a god
Of my wants and not my needs
I never thought I'd ever
Look the way I do

Oh, you say that you'll come around again
Oh you say that, you say that...
Both you hands and all their sins
And all you say is, you say is,
'My friends I'll come to make amends!'"
