there's a black ghost on my trail

won't go away, won't disappear

black ghost never fails to get his way



I'm going to run like hell

down the longest road

when I turn around he'll be waiting there I know

black ghost knows me well



out of my time

a troubled dreamer keeps calling

on someone or something

out of my mind

a troubled dreamer keeps looking

for something or someone to

free me

free me

let me go please



though I try to shake him free

I know that he's a part of me

black ghost living on he knows me well



out of my time

a troubled dreamer keeps calling

on someone or something

out of my mind

a troubled dreamer keeps looking

for something or someone to

free me

free me

let me go please

over and over and over again

and I know what I know

what I know what I know

it's done



he's coming down

he's with me now

black ghost by my side

he's with me now



there's a black ghost on my trail

won't go away won't disappear

black ghost never fails to get his way



though I try to shake him free

I know that he's a part of me

black ghost living on he knows me well



out of my time

a troubled dreamer keeps calling

on someone or something

out of my mind

a troubled dreamer keeps looking

for something or someone to

free me

free me

let me go please

over and over and over again

and I know what I know

what I know what I know

it's done



he's coming down

he's with me now

ghost coming down

black ghost by my side
