Lyrics

I went to write about death
Then the light on your chest
Through the window, on the bed
Where we are sleeping in because we can
But a ghost shifts beneath the sheets
Goodbye my bright idea
You sure shone as if you'd appear
As I let you go I hope you know
I did all I could to keep you bright idea
So with this love left to spare
I put flowers in the hair
Of a little friend of a friend
But if I get tired, I'll leave 'cos I can
With a ghost dancing in the daisies
Goodbye my bright idea
You sure shone as if you'd appear
As I let you go I hope you know
I did all I could to keep you bright idea
You are the tale I will untell myself
When I rewrite the words
When I recast the spell
And I'll miss you like a thought on which I could dwell
Fade from me well
I meant to write about loss
Then a song broke my thought
It was Ophelia by The Band
We play it loud because we can
With a ghost singing by the speaker
Goodbye my bright idea
You sure shone as if you'd appear
As I let you go I hope you know
I did all I could to keep you
Goodbye my bright idea
You sure shone as if you'd appear
As I let you go I hope you know
I did all I could to keep you bright idea
