Swingin' Single Lyrics - Spirit Of The West

We were splitting up 

You split up instead 

You lost your head last night 

And your body came to bed 

Your face came back to haunt me 

When your body ran away 

I'd put them back together 

But together they won't stay 

Skeletons in the closet 

Ghosts out in the hall 

Rattling chains and spirit trains 

Won't let me sleep at all 

No rest for the stupid 

People standing on my toes 

I gave up things i should have kept 

My violin has got no bow 

I should have told you proper 

Laid out everything 

But you were pushing separate bedrooms 

And pulling all the strings 

Skeletons in the closet 

Ghosts out in the hall 

Rattling chains and spirit trains 

Won't let me sleep at all 

Been a long time without you 

Been a long and lonely lonely time 

Bitter tears have dried with years 

And now my eyes won't cry 

My god has beena comfort 

And i'm managing to cope 

Though i'm a swinging single 

Dangling from your rope 

Skeletons in the closet 

Ghosts out in the hall 

Rattling chains and spirit trains 

Won't let me sleep at all 

Skeletons in the closet 

Ghosts out in the hall 

Rattling chains and spirit trains 

Won't let me sleep at all
