White sand, cold wash in the river
Embers of the sun still glow here
South of the desert border
We were kids then, reckless
Unafraid of what death meant
Wild horses, fenceless
Take your flight or be possessed
I just wanted to be a ghost here for a while
Just wanted to be a ghost here
To be ghost here for a while
Just wanted to be a ghost here
Pale hands, deathless but bound to disaster
Embers of my heart still glow here
Like a silent master, hunger
I just wanted to be your ghost here for a while
Just wanted to be your ghost here
To be your ghost here for a while
Just wanted to be your ghost here
Some kind of paradise
Some kind of paradise
To be apart from the doldrum
When twilight would draw near
They said that I would appear
Just like a bathing phantom
Color the Rio Grande
Draw my name into the sand
Maybe I'll haunt you
Humming into the blue
Making friends with the desert moon
This is a tameless kingdom
Some kind of paradise
Some kind of paradise
Some kind of paradise
I just wanted to be your ghost here for a while
Just wanted to be your ghost here
To be your ghost here for a while
Just wanted to be
I just wanted to be your ghost here for a while
Just wanted to be your ghost here
To be your ghost here for a while
Just wanted to be
I just wanted to be a ghost here for a while
Just wanted to be
