The Ghost Of You Lingers - Spoon

Left channel

If you were here
Would you calm me down?
You settled this part
Feelings I fight
Feeling so bright
The feelings I fight
Yeah

Or would you calm me down
When the night gets shadowed
We fast

If you were here
Would you calm me down
(We settled this part)

The man asleep
(if you were here)
Knockup
I see it
(you settled this part)
They’re all alive
The ghost of you lingers
It lingers
My life
So light
Would you settle this part?

The ghost of you lingers
And leaves
I always think about it
Oh, would you calm me down?

Right Channel

If you were here
Would you calm me down?
You settled this part
Feelings I fight
Feeling so bright
The feelings I fight

All the strangers in town
Would know if you were here
Would you ease my mind?
Come on!

The sleep fled from my eyes
And I, I know that I need some
Give a thought to the one that you know

We put on the clinic
(if you were here)
It felt good to me
(would you calm me down)
Can’t see I’m losing it
(we settled this part)
Must have set up the scene
(would you calm me down)
Put on a clinic
But I will need to write
(we settled this part)

Oh, would you ease my mind?
Yeah

Put on a clinic till we hit the
Wall
Just like a sailor with his wools beat soft
I had a light bad noon that could be put back together

My life
So light

If you were here
Would you calm me down?
