about

Edinburgh with all its closes plays host to so many ghostly stories. Karl wrote this song along with additional lyrics by Sheree...So where DO ghosts hide??

lyrics

Where the ghosts hide

There’s a face I’ve seen before, never knew her name, or from whence she came
There’s a light that’s shining through, it's strange to me and you, but its right there just the same
I hear the knocking on the door, the shuffle on the floor, the window opens wide
In the place where the ghosts hide

There’s the stormy ocean waves, the place for rogues and knaves, the wilderness that calls,
From the distance comes a cry, the cool breeze breathes a sigh, and the moon sees all..
Spirits dancing jigs and reels, the kisses lovers steal, the hooded soldiers ride,
In the place where the ghosts hide..

Ref
Who will brave the night, and who would take to flight, and who will face the light
In another world?
Time is no one’s friend, these days will always end, shadows sleep inside
In the place where the ghosts hide..

There a sound of sea on shore, a shadow takes the floor, and disappears
There’s a crumbling mansion wall, a picture in the hall, with a smile that turns to tears
I hear the whispers in the night, a raven takes to flight, and the wild winds cry
In the place where the ghosts hide...


2nd lyrics:

Circling mists and shapes that shift, escape in evenings fall
Soft wind sighs and tear stained cries sound through the corridors
Thoughts ....that remain unheard, meaning has no rhyme
In the place where the ghosts hide.

Held by a silver thread which binds you close and ties your eyes
Leading you through the wave of dreams she takes you by the hand
Tide it ebbs and flows, light is fading fast ,
In the place where the ghosts hide.

And with the dawn see darkness done, and night retreats in waves
Breathe in the air, and see all around, shake off all despair
There’s no need to fear, oall the voices that you're near,
In the place where the ghosts hide

Who will brave the night, and who would take to flight,
Who will face the light in another world
Time is no one's friend these days will always end, shadows sleep inside
In the place where the ghosts hide

Repeat first verse.
Repeat refrain.
