Ghost Of His Smile Lyrics - Good Morning Spider - Sparklehorse

He don't get out much 

These days 

But I wouldn't call him 

Lazy 

He sees the dawn sneak 

Into the room 

And knows the dogs 

Will be up soon 

And we thought that he was doing alright 

As the sun chased down another night 

And days careen 

Like the waters 

Of a river rushing 

To the sea 

Here she comes again 

Down the staircase 

She never passes 

Without saying hello 

And we thought that he was doing alright 

And she says hello 

I can't forget the ghost 

I can't forget the ghost 

I can't forget the ghost 

Of his smile 

And dogs will wag their tails 

And birds will sing 

Hell, it's a hard world 

For little things 

And we thought that he was doing alright 

I can't forget the ghost 

I can't forget the ghost 

I can't forget the ghost 

Of his smile
