I Don't Want To Live With A Ghost
Words & Music by Don Tomlinson

VERSE
I was young and in love; just couldn’t get enough
You thought the world of me, or so it seemed
‘Til something came between us; it was not a man
But it still had a hold on your heart

VERSE
You needed to see if you could realize a dream
I had to let you go; I could not say “no”
I knew you wouldn’t go without me, but I couldn’t live that way
‘Cause I don’t want to live with a ghost

CHORUS
So, go, follow your dreams
I’ll be beside you all the way
‘Cause I love you like you love me
But I don’t want to live with a ghost

BRIDGE
I know you’d be haunted for the rest of our lives
By thoughts of what might have been

Repeat CHORUS

VERSE
I have a passion in life; it’s you
But when you set your sights, you had two
I know I’m the only one who warms your bed at night
And I’m proud to be your friend and your guiding light

Repeat CHORUS (twice)

TAG
No, I don’t want to live with a ghost
