Robyn Hitchcock - Sweet Ghost of Light lyrics

[Robyn Hitchcock - Sweet Ghost of Light lyrics]

Sweet ghost of light when you appear
You fall around me everywhere

I see your face as you pass by
As fragile as a dragonfly

You jab me in the kidneys like
A compass or an iron spike but i can't help
Believing you
Because i love the things you do

Sweet ghost of light i've lived too long
I'd die for you inside this song

The sweetest death that i can dream
Like petals flowing down a stream

That turn to blood as they dissolve
And it's all around you I revolve

Sweet ghost of light you'll never fade
By nothing else are you betrayed

You fill me 'til i'm empty and
You empty me like grains of sand

I love you more than anyone
Beneath the moon, beneath the sun
