Lyrics

Lately i've been thinking
Lately i've been dreaming with you
I'm so resitant to this type of thinking
Oh, now it's shining through
I was alone for the last time
Before my night's vacation with you
Alive from the first
Now i'm denied by the ghost of you

You take yourself a photograph and laugh at me
Please

I know there's little use in crying
It's more wide awake and dying then i'm used to
I thought we'd walk these streets together
Now i'm hoping that i'll never have to meet you
Step aside from all this anger
And somewhere in between I can feel you
Ask me should we try again
I'm thinking no
Y'know, it's not what I believe in
It's not what I believe in

You take yourself a photograph and laugh at me
Please
You make yourself a photograph and laugh at me
Please

No i, wanna taste you, love
No i...no i
No i, just wanna taste you, love

Standing in your shoes
I turn and now
You're standing bare in my doorway
I only wish that I had been prepared
I'm gonna have to go along with your way
Just take the plastic camera out
It's the pants you borrowed in the driveway
Alive from the first
Now i'm denied by the ghost of you

Make yourself a photgraph and laugh at me
Please
You make yourself a photograph and laugh at me
Please

No i, wanna taste of love
No i..

I was alive from the first
Now i'm denied by the ghost of you

Ghost, the first single from ''australia'', has been performed live at the boston music awards in 2001 where howie picked up the award for "best debut album by a singer-songwriter"

In 2001, howie's live version of ghost began encapsulating ''beams of light'', a tease song inspired by the flash mountain ride at disneyland. at the end of playing ghost, howie will kick in a double time intro to bring crowds out of their slow groove into an upbeat dance mood!
