Ella Henderson Ghost Lyrics

I keep going to the river to pray
Cos I need, something that can wash all the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you will kiss me awake

My friends had you figured out
Yeah they saw what's inside of you
Trying to hide in another you
But your evil is coming through

These eyes sitting on the wall
They watch every move I make
Bright light living in the shade
Your cold heart makes your spirit shake

I had to go through hell to prove I'm not insane
Had to meet the devil just to know his name
And that's where my love was burning
Yeah it's still burning

I keep going to the river to pray
Cos I need, something that can wash all the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake(x2)

Each time that I think you go
I turn around and you're creeping in
And I let you under my skin
Cos I love living innocent

Boy you never told me
True love was going to hurt
True pain that I don't deserve
Truth is that I never learn

I keep going to the river to pray
Cos I need, something that can wash all the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake(x2)

Give up the ghost, Give up the ghost, Give up the ghost, Stop the haunting baby
Give up the ghost, Give up the ghost, Give up the ghost, No more haunting baby

I keep going to the river

I keep going to the river to pray
Cos I need, something that can wash all the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake(x2)
