Sting 09 Ghost Story Lyrics
i watch the western sky.. the sun is sinking... the geese are flying south... it sets me thinking...
i did not miss you much; i did not suffer. what did not kill me just made me tougher.
i feel the winter come, his icy sinews... now in the firelight, the case continues.
another night in court. the same old trial... the same old questions asked; the same denial.
the shadows close me round, like jury members, i look for answers in the fire's embers...
why was i busy then, that whole december? i give my usual lie/line; i don't remember.
another winter comes.. his icy fingers creep into these bones of mine; these memories never sleep.
and all these differences, a cloak, i borrow... we kept our distances.. why should it follow..
i must have loved you.
what is the force that binds the stars ? i wore this mask to hide my scars.
what is the power that pulls the tides? 'never could find a place to hide...
what moves the earth around the sun? what could i do but run and run and run...
afraid to love, afraid to fail.. a mast without a sail...
now moon's a fingernail and slowly sinking.. another day begins, and now i'm thinking..
that this indifference was my invention, when everything i did sought your attention...
you were my compass star... you were my measure... you were a pirate's map of buried treasure...
if this was all correct, the last thing i'd expect...the prosecution rests.. it's time that i confess,
i must have loved you.
I must have loved you."
