Having trouble in love? Don't give up! There's someone out there for you - alive or dead...

lyrics

I’m a shy guy, never been kissed
Never thought I’d be in love like this
Your lips are warm, your hands are cold
You say you love me, but you’re hard to hold

Is this a love that we can save?
If one lover is out of the grave?

I’ve got a ghost of chance with you
Every look you give me, I see right through
I’ve got a ghost of a chance with you
Maybe I’m wrong, or maybe it’s true
But I’ve got a ghost of a chance with you

Our first date was on Halloween
You were the prettiest girl I’d seen
My love for you is beyond the pale
Hope I don’t end up in jail

God knows my feelings are true
And you’re so spiritual too

I’ve got a ghost of chance with you
Every look you give me, I see right through
I’ve got a ghost of a chance with you
Maybe I’m wrong, or maybe it’s true
But I’ve got a ghost of a chance with you

They say love is a hurtin’ thing
I don’t know just what they mean
Cause my love don’t feel a thing

Who ever thought I’d fall in love
I could blame the stars above
But I know this is what I want
I’m never tired of the same old haunt

This is how it’s gonna be
She’s outta sight, just for me

I’ve got a ghost of chance with you
Every look you give me, I see right through
I’ve got a ghost of a chance with you
Maybe I’m wrong, or maybe it’s true
But I’ve got a ghost of a chance with you

I’ve got a ghost of a chance with you
I’ve got a ghost of a chance with you
I’ve got a ghost of a chance with you
