Holy Ghost

There was a popup revival on the edge of town People came from miles to see what was going down They said the Holy Ghost would knock you to the ground And I wanted to feel God reaching out So when it came my turn the preacher took me by the shoulder Put his hand on my chest, tried to knock me over And I swear I believed but I didn't lock my knees Was the only one left standing wondering what was wrong with me Yeah, I've always been a little cynical They say I've got a skeptical nature Doesn't mean I'm not hopeful Just means that I'm a cautious believer It's the craziest thing after all I've seen Well, I still want to believe Yeah, that Holy Ghost keeps haunting me That Holy Ghost keeps haunting me Well it's another headline, it's another disaster Another fall from grace from some mega pastor The person who taught you about your Savior Breaking down sooner or later And maybe that's just divine irony As you try to see the forest for the trees That through crooked teeth the gospels preached And maybe there's hope for someone like me Yeah, I've always been a little cynical They say I've got a skeptical nature Doesn't mean I'm not hopeful Just means that I'm a cautious believer It's the craziest thing after all I've seen Well, I still want to believe Yeah, that Holy Ghost keeps haunting me That Holy Ghost keeps haunting me And oh, I can't explain it But something just won't Won't let me go And oh, I can't explain it But something just won't Won't let me go Your Holy Ghost Just won't let me go I've always been a little cynical They say I've got a skeptical nature Doesn't mean I'm not hopeful Just means that I'm a cautious believer It's the craziest thing after all I've seen Well, I still want to believe Yeah, that Holy Ghost keeps haunting me That Holy Ghost keeps haunting me
