Sufjan Stevens - Enchanting Ghost lyrics
[Sufjan Stevens - Enchanting Ghost lyrics]
Tell me what you saw in me
And I’ll try to replicate it with a scene
If it troubles you to breathe
Wait a moment, I could change the scenery
Don’t carry on carrying efforts, oh no
Oh oh oh somewhere there’s a room for each
Of us to grow
And if it pleases you to leave me, just go
Oh oh oh stopping you would stifle
Your enchanting ghost
It’s only that I meant to bring
Love and liveliness to your
Breast on the scene
Did you cut your hands on me?
Are my edges sharp? Am I a pest to feed?
Don’t carry on carrying regrets
Oh no oh oh oh somewhere there’s a room for
Us to speak alone
And if it grieves you to stay here, just go
Oh oh oh oh
For I have no spell on you, it’s all a ghost
I still have the things you gave me
Four anointing oils, the paperweight you made
For should I haven’t carried them
Or buried them in the name of your ghost
My friend
Don’t carry on carrying efforts: don’t
Go! no oh oh
Stay with me until I sleep within your host
Or if it pleases you to leave me, just go
Oh oh oh oh stopping you would stifle
Your enchanting ghost
And I’ll try to replicate it with a scene
If it troubles you to breathe
Wait a moment, I could change the scenery
Don’t carry on carrying efforts, oh no
Oh oh oh somewhere there’s a room for each
Of us to grow
And if it pleases you to leave me, just go
Oh oh oh stopping you would stifle
Your enchanting ghost
It’s only that I meant to bring
Love and liveliness to your
Breast on the scene
Did you cut your hands on me?
Are my edges sharp? Am I a pest to feed?
Don’t carry on carrying regrets
Oh no oh oh oh somewhere there’s a room for
Us to speak alone
And if it grieves you to stay here, just go
Oh oh oh oh
For I have no spell on you, it’s all a ghost
I still have the things you gave me
Four anointing oils, the paperweight you made
For should I haven’t carried them
Or buried them in the name of your ghost
My friend
Don’t carry on carrying efforts: don’t
Go! no oh oh
Stay with me until I sleep within your host
Or if it pleases you to leave me, just go
Oh oh oh oh stopping you would stifle
Your enchanting ghost
