about

Live performance with band of Dorothy Bird's original song 'Ghosts' taken from her album 'Belonging'.

lyrics

The hours are forming thick knots of knowing
Yet we sit here timelessly
In the landscapes of our broken-down walls
We are determined to live
I’m flipping the coin in my chest
Making a wish what to feel
It seems that one side scares away the rest
So I keep it moving to keep you near
You’re a ghost in me
You’re a ghost in me
My thoughts of you rattle in the frame
They’re fantasmas burning night and day
You have been woven into my being, the loops are infinite
Yet dissolving in circles and you are fading and getting out of reach
You’re a ghost in me
You’re a ghost, please leave
Seek out to find
Another heart to bind
The hours are forming thick knots of knowing
Yet we sit here timelessly
