Ghost (Oliver Nelson Remix)

Lyrics

[Intro] Ooh, give up Ooh, give up Ooh, give up Ooh, give up [Chorus] I keep going to the river to pray 'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake (give up) [Verse 1] My friends had you figured out Yeah they saw what's inside of you You tried hiding another you But your evil was coming through (give up) These eyes sitting on the wall They watch every move I make Bright light living in the shade Your cold heart makes my spirit shake (give up) [Pre-Chorus] I had to go through hell to provе I'm not insane Had to meet the devil (givе up) just to know his name And that's when my love (give up) was burning Yeah it's still burning [Chorus] I keep going to the river to pray 'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake I keep going to the river to pray 'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake (give up) [Post-Chorus] (Give up) Give up the ghost, give up the ghost (Give up) Give up the ghost, stop the haunting baby (Give up) Give up the ghost, give up the ghost (Give up) Give up the ghost, no more haunting baby [Verse 2] Each time that I think you go I turn around and you're creeping in And I let you under my skin 'Cause I love living innocent Oh, you never told me True love was gonna hurt True pain I don't deserve [Chorus] I keep going to the river to pray 'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake I keep going to the river to pray 'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] I keep going to the river to pray 'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake I keep going to the river to pray 'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake [Drop] Give up, give up Give up, give up [Chorus] (Give up) I keep going to the river to pray (Give up) 'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain (Give up) And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away (Give up) But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake (Give up) I keep going to the river to pray (Give up) 'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain (Give up) And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away (Give up) But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake [Outro] (Going to the river)
