ghost of his smile
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  Dogs will wag their tails And birds will sing Hell it's 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
