Only If for a Night

[Verse 1] And I had a dream About my old school And she was there all pink and gold and glittering I threw my arms around her legs Came to weeping (came to weeping) Came to weeping (came to weeping) [Pre-Chorus] And I heard your voice as clear as day And you told me I should concentrate It was all so strange and so surreal That a ghost should be so practical Only if for a night [Chorus] And the only solution was to stand and fight And my body was loose 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 [Verse 2] And the grass was so green against my new clothes And I did cartwheels in your honor Dancing on tiptoes My own secret ceremonials Before the service began In the graveyard doing handstands [Pre-Chorus] And I heard your voice as clear as day And you told me I should concentrate It was all so strange and so surreal That a ghost should be so practical Only if for a night [Chorus] And the only solution was to stand and fight And my body was loose 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 [Bridge] My doe, my dear, my darling Tell me what all the sighing is about Tell me what all the sighing is about [Pre-Chorus] And I heard your voice as clear as day And you told me I should concentrate It was all so strange and so surreal That a ghost should be so practical [Outro] Only if for a night (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Only if for a night (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Only if for a night (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Only if for a night (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Only if for a night (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Only if for a night (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Only if for a night (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Only if for a night (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
