The Ghost Inside Our House

we saw a ghost inside our house
or was it wishful thinking
oh god, don't leave us by ourselves
or we're bound to take up drinking
please send us a miracle
so i know that there is meaning
except i think that it's a miracle
just to be breathing
so live on
baby live on
live on
baby live on
packed up my clothes
in a grocery bag
I'm going to find the creator
an old man in the clouds
or a happy little alien
whoever it is
i need to thank her
and even though i don't know god
I'm happy with the mystery
and I'm certain that i feel it
every time that you sing to me
in songs
life is like a song
it's a song
a humble song
i watched you sleeping until five am
cause i want to be part of your dreaming
oh love, don't leave me by myself
or I'm bound to lose my meaning
we'll start a little family
and call it our religion
hunt for ghosts inside our house
because we'll never give up wishing
that we live on
baby live on
in our song
a humble song
