   There's a letter on the desktop
  that i dug out of the drawer
  the last truce we ever came to
  in our adolescent war
  
  and i start to feel a fever
  from the warm air through the screen
  you come regular like seasons
  shadowing my dreams
  
  and the mississippi's mighty
  but it starts in minnesota
  at a place that you can walk across
  with five steps down
  and i guess that's how you started
  like a pinprick to my heart
  but at this point you rush right through me
  and i start to drown
  
  and there's not enough room
  in this world for my pain
  signals cross and love gets lost
  and time past makes it plain
  of all my demon spirits
  i need you the most
  i'm in love with your ghost
  
  dark and dangerous like a secret
  that gets whispered in a hush (don't tell a soul)
  when i wake the things i dreamt about you
  last night make me blush
  you kissed me like a lover
  then you sting me like a viper
  i will follow to the river
  play your memory like a piper
  
  i feel it like a sickness
  how this love is killing me
  i would walk into the fingers of your fire willingly
  and dance the edge of sanity
  i've never been this close
  in love with your ghost
  
  now i see your face before me
  i would launch a thousand ships
  to bring your heart back to my island
  as the sand beneath me slips
  i burn up in your presence
  and i know now how it feels
  to be weakened like achilles
  with you always at my heels
  
  and my bitter pill to swallow is the silence that i keep
  it poisons me
  i can't swim free
  the river is too deep
  though i'm baptised by your touch
  i am no worst at most, in love with your ghost
