Only If For A Night

And I had a dream

About my old school

And she was there all pink and gold and glittering

I threw my arms around her legs

Came to weeping (came to weeping)

And I heard your voice as clear as day

And you told me I should concentrate

It was all so strange and so surreal

That a ghost should be so practical

Only if for a night

And the only solution was to stand and fight

And my body was bruised and I was set alight

But you came over me like some holy rite

And although I was burning, you're the only light

Only if for a night

And the grass was so green against my new clothes

And I did cartwheels in your honor

Dancing on tiptoes, my own secret ceremonials

Before the service began

In the graveyard doing handstands

And I heard your voice as clear as day

And you told me I should concentrate

It was all so strange and so surreal

That a ghost should be so practical

Only if for a night

And the only solution was to stand and fight

And my body was bruised and I was set alight

But you came over me like some holy rite

And although I was burning, you're the only light

Only if for a night

My doe, my dear, my darling

Tell me what all this sighing's about

And I heard your voice as clear as day

And you told me I should concentrate

It was all so strange and so surreal

That a ghost should be so practical

Only if for a night (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ohh oh)
