It's been 24 months Since you left our house 24 months Friday past 54 months Since we fell in love 10 seconds Since I thought of you last I wake up in the morning Lying to my coffee Running out of reasons Trying to get your smell of me By midday I'll feel pretty good Feels like it's over Feels like I think you think I should Yeah, I'm meeting new Friends Eating new food Reading new books Subscribing to a new groove CHORUS But when I lie down (I lie down) Feels like the world's upon my shoulders (I lie down) Yeah I lie down A little more worn A little older (I lie down) Cause when I lie down Then it's just you and me (I lie down) Cause I lie down With the ghost of your company How do ya kill the ghost When the ghost don't bleed? She hangs out in my bed She often needles me Screaming for attention In the middle of the night Just won't let me forget her Stalkin me til dawns light Woman is as false As a feather in the wind Blowin' in the breeze The original sin Forget she's there And she'll tickle your nose Gentle as the daybreak Smellin' like a rose REPEAT CHORUS
