dessa - call off your ghost (live) lyrics

[verse 1]
last night, old friend, big wedding
and i knew you’d be there too
look at us, all grown up
collared shirts and high heeled shoes
you crossed the room, just the decent thing to do
make sure we’d 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

[hook]
we’ve lived
too long, too close
so call off your ghost

[verse 2]
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 waving
can’t hear you call my name
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
ah, but one of us got clumsy
both of us got wise
now we’re not so young
seems our wishing well’s gone dry

[hook]
we’ve been living
too long, too close
and i’m ready to let you go
i’m ready (call off your ghost)
so call off your ghost

[bridge]
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

[hook]
we’ve been living
too long, too close
and i’m ready to let you go
i’m ready (call off your ghost)
so call off your ghost

we’ve been living
too long, too close
and i’m ready to let you go
i’m ready
call off your ghost

[spoken]
ladies and gentlemen, ashley dubose
