And I had a dream

About my old school

And she was there all pink and gold and glitteringI threw my arms around her legs

Came to weeping (Came to weeping)

Came to weeping (Came to weeping)

And I heard your voice

As clear as day

And you told me I should concentrate

It was all so strange

And it′s so surreal

That a ghost should be so practical

Only if for a night

And the only solution was to stand and fight

And my body was bruised and I was set alight

But you came over me like some holy rite

And although I was burning, you're the only light

Only if for a night

And the grass was so green against my new clothes

And I did cartwheels in your honour

Dancing on tiptoes

My own secret ceremonials

Before the service began

In the graveyard doing handstands

And I heard your voice

As clear as day

And you told me I should concentrate

It was all so strange

And it′s so surreal

That a ghost should be so practical

Only if for a night

And the only solution was to stand and fight

And my body was bruised and I was set alight

But you came over me like some holy rite

And although I was burning, you're the only light

Only if for a night

My doe, my dear, my darling

Tell me what all this sighing's about

Tell me what all this sighing′s about

And I heard your voice

As clear as day

And you told me I should concentrate

It was all so strange

And it′s so surreal

That a ghost should be so practical

Only if for a night

Only if for a night

Only if for a night

Only if for a night

Only if for a night

Only if for a night

Only if for a night

Only if for a night
