My Novel Approach

YOUR GHOST STILL HAUNTS MY HEART

They say it’s better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
But like the knee scrape when I was six
I think I would rather just miss the fall.

But what’s come and gone can’t be undone
That ship was torn apart
Even though no storm blew down
Your ghost still haunts my heart.

I sail on from day to day
A soldier of pop art
But I’ll never sail calm seas through life
‘Cause your ghost still haunts my heart
Yes, your ghost still haunts my heart.

Can you hear my cry for freedom?
Please leave your clinging host
An imperfect heart lies in my chest
That sails that lonely coast.

I sail on from day to day
A soldier of pop art
But I’ll never sail calm seas through life
‘Cause your ghost still haunts my heart
Yes, your ghost still haunts my heart.

My dark and dangerous secret
That can never calm the seas
My personal shipwreck has gone down
My heart, the casualty.

So now I raise the main sail
My voyage continues on
And though I sail 10,000 miles
My seas are never calm

I sail on from day to day
A soldier of pop art
But I’ll never sail calm seas through life
‘Cause your ghost still haunts my heart
Yes, your ghost still haunts my heart.
