Holding Onto The Ghost

Verse 1

That rusted gate is swinging low

Dirt under my nails while the creek water runs slow

Found your lighter in my denim jacket sleeve

I keep pretending that you never had to leave

Pre-Chorus

Pour another glass of that cheap red wine

The sun is fading out just to give me a sign

Chorus

Give me one more night of holding onto the ghost

Whatever it takes to love you the most

When the moonlight hits the hood of that truck

I’m running out of time and running out of luck

Loving you was always my favorite sin

The kind of wild trouble I'd get lost in again

Verse 2

Crickets screaming loud in the tall grass

Watching all the ghosts of our memories pass

Hard wood porch and a half-smoked cigarette

I ain’t found the strength for moving on quite yet

Pre-Chorus

I’m shaking off the dust from the heavy day

Finding all the words that I meant to say

Chorus

Give me one more night of holding onto the ghost

Whatever it takes to love you the most

When the moonlight hits the hood of that truck

I’m running out of time and running out of luck

Loving you was always my favorite sin

The kind of wild trouble I'd get lost in again

Bridge

Maybe I’m a fool

Maybe I’m a wreck

Maybe I’m a mess around your neck

Chorus

Give me one more night of holding onto the ghost

Whatever it takes to love you the most

When the moonlight hits the hood of that truck

I’m running out of time and running out of luck

Loving you was always my favorite sin

The kind of wild trouble I'd get lost in again

Post-Chorus

Yeah I'd get lost again

Wild trouble again

I'd get lost in again
