I sing to the lost I sing to the broken and abused And if they don't want to listen I don't mind I sing to the silence But do you want to hear my voice? And when I sing my prayers will you jump for joy? All my life I've been letting myself feel The burden of the world You'll never keep me here I saw the ghost of you He told me what to do He said, "Don't ever cry 'cause i'm right here by your side" I saw the ghost of you He told me love was true I never knew that I was keeping you alive Into the shadows It took me by surprise So I sang you all the songs I've ever known And if I were to see you again Would you take me by the hand To the place I've never gone? And all our lives We've been letting ourselves feel The burden of the world You'll never keep us here I saw the ghost of you He told me what to do He said, "Don't ever cry 'cause i'm right here by your side" I saw the ghost of you He told me love was true I never knew that I was keeping you alive Keeping you alive We will be strong We will fight on We will fight on We will be strong We will fight on We will fight on I saw the ghost of you He told me what to do He said, "Don't ever cry" I saw the ghost of you He told me what to do He said, "Don't ever cry 'cause i'm right here by your side" I saw the ghost of you He told me love was true I never knew that I was keeping you alive
