Call Off Your Ghost (Live)

Last night, old friend, big wedding

And I knew you'd be there too

Look at us, all grown up

Collared shirts and high heel shoes

You crossed the room, just the decent thing to do

Make sure we've all been introduced

You brought your new friend

I brought mine shake hands

Pay courtesy its due

But it takes its toll

And it takes its hold

We've lived too long too close

So call off your ghost

Now you're asking can't we just be friends

But this bell in my chest still rings

And it's better to just pretend

That I can't see you waiting

Can't hear you call my name and

I know how much you hate it

But babe I've got to walk away

You once said if we were careful

That we could do this all our lives

Although one of us got clumsy

And both of us got wise

And now we're not so young

Seems our wishing well's gone dry

We've been living too long too close

And I'm ready to let you go

I'm ready, so call off your ghost

I think she lives around here

I see her almost daily

All I can do to stop myself from saying something crazy

I don't think badly of her

I hope she makes you happy

It's just a lot to ask to watch your future walking past me

I know that jealousy's a perfect waste of time

But left to my devices

I've spent far too long wasting mine

I've spent far too long wasting mine

We've been living too long too close

And I'm ready to let you go

I'm ready, so call off your ghost

So call off your ghost
