So if you came back now
I'd go from low to high
Despite the circum-stan-ces

I'd apologise

I'd tell the baker

He does a pretty good job
And share the good news


I could be standing on the shadow of your ghost
I could be standing on the shadow of your ghost


I'd steal a tin of red paint
And make a ten foot heart
In the laneway

Outside your house at dark

I'd shout the tradesmen

At the bar
And share the good news


I could be standing on the shadow of your ghost
I could be standing on the shadow of your ghost
You wouldn't tell me and I think that hurts the most

I could be standing on the shadow of your ghost

But if you stay away

I don't know what I'll do
I'd probably fix my bed
And save a spot for you


I'd comb my hair (comb your hair)
And shine my shoes

And share the good news

I could be standing on the shadow of your ghost

I could be standing on the shadow of your ghost
You wouldn't tell me and I think that hurts the most
I could be standing on the shadow of your ghost
