You cannot hug a shadow's neck

You cannot kiss a silhouette

But I've done both

Time and time again

You reel me in like rain on a tin roof

When I open the door to let you in

You are not there, the sky is clear

There's not a cloud in sight

Am I believing in a ghost

Am I wishing on a star

Am I loving you the most

Because I can't be where you are

And am I wishing you were here

'Cause I know you cannot be

Am I going crazy, dear

Your secret eyes, they touch my skin

I wish that I could pretend

But as you know

That really ain't my field

I sit around, looking much too serious

And I stand still, lay in dark period

But all the day will fly away

Am I believing in a ghost

Am I wishing on a star

Am I loving you the most

Because I can't be where you are

And am I wishing you were here

Because I know you cannot be

Am I going crazy, dear

To let you get the best of me

Am I believing in a ghost

Am I wishing on a star

Am I loving you the most

Because I can't be where you are

And am I wishing you were here

'Cause I know you cannot be

Am I going crazy, dear

Am I going crazy, dear

Am I going crazy

To let you get the best of me
