Rebecca de la Torre - Ghost of Me Lyrics

So we have rolled around in this dance
We want to think of this as romance
But a lot of me gets in the way
There is so much that I want to say

Honey you are damned; and I am too
But I so want to get inside of you
Life is not free we all have to pay
There is something that I want to say

You think you know me but you don't
I could show you more but I won't
Because what you see is the ghost of me
The rest of me you'd view tragically

You know my last lover walked out the door
With all the china and so much more
It was my own private introduction to hell
Feast your eyes on my pretty little shell

So I picked up the pieces; tried to move on
But I knew a big piece of me was already gone
My spirit was broken and my heart was pawed
And I carry the guilt of selling you a fraud

Raise your glass and drink a toast with me
Thank you for going to the post for me
But honey my lover left with most of me
So what you see is the ghost of me, ghost of me

You think you know me but you don't
I could show you more but I won't
Because what you see is the ghost of me
The rest of me you would view tragically
I wish that you could heal me magically
And bring back the rest of me, rest of me
Honey you would like the rest of me
