Living With The Ghost (Live From The London Palladium) - Bon Jovi

Written by：Jon Bon Jovi

Marry me to the blue sky

Bury me in that long last drop of hard rain

Meet me where they stop time

That's you to me on the shovel

That's digging this grave

Till I can waltz on a moonbeam

Till I can find a way to return all tears into wine

I'll hitch my ride to a day dream

Can't unkiss the lips that love is leaving behind

I ain't living with the ghost

No future living in the past

I've seen that hate has done to hop

Tomorrow wasn't built to last

I ain't living with the ghost

How can I scream I'm scared to breathe

I wrote each word you gave the toast

But we were fire and gasoline

I ain't living with the ghost

I set my sails over wheat fields

Rode waves of amber let a new sun shine on my face

I dropped the sword put down my shield

I left your scars for the stars guiding my way

I traded hurting for healing

I must admit that I was reeling

Now I'm feeling just fine

Traded nightmares for dreaming

Go tell your shadows that I got out alive

I ain't living with the ghost

No future living in the past

I've seen what hurt has done to hope

I found the tree I cut the rope

Tomorrow wasn't built to last

I ain't living with the ghost

How can I scream I'm scared to breathe

I wrote each word you gave the toast

But we were fire and gasoline

I ain't living with the ghost

Oh oh

Last night I had this dream

I saw a man wash his feet

In the church holy water

He worked up to his knees

From his arms to his neck

Said I'm over in my head

He was crying trying to get some relief

He was just trying to get some relief

I had this dream

That man was me

I ain't living with the ghost

No future living in the past

I've seen what hurt has done to hope

I found the tree I cut the rope

Tomorrow wasn't built to last

I ain't living with the ghost

How can I scream I'm scared to breathe

I wrote each word you gave the toast

But we were fire and gasoline

I ain't living with the ghost
