Emilie Autumn - Poem: Ghost - Текст песни

Did you know 
Sometimes it frightens me
When you say my name 
And I can't see you

Will you ever learn to materialize 
Before you speak
Impetuous boy
If that's what you really are
How many centuries 
Since you've climbed a balcony
Or do you do this every night 
With someone else

You tell me that you never leave
And I am almost afraid 
To believe it
Why is it me 
You've chosen to follow
Did you like the way I look 
When I am sleeping

Was my hair more fun to tangle
Are my dreams more entertaining

Do you laugh 
When I'm complaining 
That I'm all alone
Where were you 
When I searched the sea
For a friend to talk to me
In a year 
Where will you be

Is it enough 
For you to steal into my mind
Filling up my page with 
Music written in my hand
You know I'll take the credit
For I must have made you come to me somehow

But please 
Try to close the curtains 
When you leave at night
Or I'll have to find someone 
To stay and warm me

Will you always attend my midnight tea parties
As long as I set your place
If one day 
Your sugar sits untouched
Will you have gone forever

Would you miss me 
In a thousand years
When you will dry 
Another's tears

But you say 
You'll never leave me
And I wonder if you'll have the decency
To pass through my wall 
To the next room
While I dress for dinner

But when I'm stuck in conversation
With stuffed shirts 
Whose adoration
Hurts my ears
Where are you then

Can't you cut in 
When I dance with other men
It's too late 
Not to interfere with my life
You've already made me 
A most unsuitable wife
For any man who wants to be the first 
His bride has slept with

And you can't just fly into people's bedrooms
Then expect them to calmly wave goodbye

You've changed the course of history
And didn't even try

Where are you now
Standing behind me
Taking my hand
Come 
And remind me
Who you are
Have you traveled far
Are you made of stardust too
Are the angels after you
Tell me 
What I am to do

But until then 
I'll save your side of the bed
Just come 
And sing me to sleep
