There's a skeleton in everybody's closet
I can think of one or two in my own room
But I would like to introduce them both to you
Shake their bony hands and so dispel the gloom
Cause you're so kind I know you would not mind
Send away the ghosts that haunt me now
And the things I fear just wouldn't seem
so near When I stroll out late at night
There would be nothing rattling at my heels
There at night and all my aching bones won't let me sleep
Demons come plaguing me as I lie in bed
But I know if you were sleeping there beside
me then That you would fend them off and they would
let me rest
Cause you're so kind I know you would not
mind
Send away the ghosts that haunt me now
And the things I fear just wouldn't seem so near
When I stroll out late at night There
would be nothing rattling at my heels
There at night when the wind comes howling through my old place
I have dreams,
yeah,
wiggled with the sweat pouring down my face
I wait until the morning comes
I feel when all my days are done They will come,
dagging my corpse and bury me
But I hope that you come over to the
other side Join me in our new life,
keep me company
Cause you're so kind I know you would not mind
Send away the ghosts that haunt me now And
the things I fear just wouldn't seem so near
When I stroll out late at night There
would be nothing rattling at my heels
